Compliment
A Love Unveiled: Zack Thayer's Melodic Journey
Lyrics
I'm sure you've heard I love you before
I express my love for you, a sentiment you may have heard before.
So I don't want to slip and become just one more
I aim not to be just another person who professes love and then fades away.
Guy who confesses, regresses and makes you cry
Avoiding the stereotype of confessing love, regretting it, and causing tears.
But it feels so natural to say in my mind
Despite my reservations, it feels natural to express my love in my thoughts.
If I had a way to find your voice
If I had a method to hear your voice.
And hear you say your name
Specifically, to hear you say your own name.
I love the way we met
I cherish the way we first encountered each other.
I said "It was just a compliment"
Previously, I dismissed it as just a compliment.
Now two years have passed since then
Two years have passed since that moment.
When I was child I thought love songs were vain
In my childhood, I viewed love songs as superficial and insincere.
Exaggerated to make me feel something
Assuming they were exaggerated to evoke emotions.
And then I grew and fell into you and my life changed
However, falling in love with you transformed my perspective.
Now I write them on my own
Now, I create my own love songs.
If I had a way to find your voice
If there was a way to hear your voice again.
And hear you say your name
Especially to hear you utter your name.
I love the way we met
Reflecting on the fondness of how we first met.
I said "It was just a compliment"
Recalling my previous dismissal, stating it was merely a compliment.
Now I write to you instead
Now, I communicate my feelings through writing.
I miss the one I love
Expressing the longing for the person I love.
I wait for the day I pick you up, pick you up
Anxiously awaiting the day I can pick you up.
I miss the one I love
Continuing to miss the person I love.
I wait for the moment I pick you up
Anticipating the moment I can pick you up again.
When I've made it home
Waiting for the time when I've safely returned home.
In a movie where you and I aren't alone
Imagining a scenario where we are not alone in a movie.
