[Verse] He's standing there under the streetlight's glow Every day he waits but she doesn't know His heart's a storm his mind's a maze Her smile's the sun that cuts through his haze [Verse 2] He sees her laugh her joy's a flame But he's too scared to call her name Her world feels close yet far away He's stuck in shadows where dreams decay [Chorus] Waiting in the shadows caught in his mind Searching for courage he's trying to find The words to tell her but they're locked inside He's lost in the feeling he just can't describe [Verse 3] Her eyes like stars they pull him in But he can't begin where to begin He's built a castle made of doubt Afraid to let the feelings out [Bridge] What if she sees him and walks away What if the words just lead to dismay He's torn between silence and taking a chance Caught in the middle of this fragile dance [Chorus] Waiting in the shadows caught in his mind Searching for courage he's trying to find The words to tell her but they're locked inside He's lost in the feeling he just can't describe
