[Verse 1 with Female voice] I walk in boots and baggy jeans, gasoline laugh, sunset in my eyes. I spill my dreams with no routine, in every joke a kiss that hides. [Pre-chorus] When he comes close I turn to steel, but inside a steady drum will pound. I hug him like a friend, say “it’s okay,” I feel, while my chest screams words that won’t come out. [Chorus] ’Cause I love him in secret, in tees and no frame, I pray one day he’ll see me, call me by my name. He only says “friend,” keeps me near but cold, and leaves me with this quiet ache I hold. [Verse 2 ] With gentle hands he mends his charms, soft and rough, like wind and stone. I trust his words, he reaches out his arms, and every time I bite my tongue alone. [Pre-chorus] Night finds us humming the same song, we want to speak but lose the line. Her truth could break or build us strong, we fear the voice that names the sign. [Chorus] ’Cause I love him in secret, in tees and no frame, I pray one day he’ll see me, call me by my name. He only says “friend,” keeps me near but cold, and leaves me with this quiet ache I hold. [Bridge] One day I’ll meet my mirror, drop my guard and cry, send a letter to the wind, let the truth fly free. I don’t beg for love—just for him to see my eyes, to stop the shadow-keep and meet the real me. [Final Chorus] Now he’s more than just a friend in my life, he walks the thin line between fear and desire. If I look in his eyes and feel more than the light, what’s left unsaid might burn and call us by a name. [Outro] But I’m still a tomboy—in a cape, wild and free, and I carry in my chest a fight for honesty. If I start to call him more than “friend” again, maybe we’ll write a story where we both win.
