Your Familiar Face Lyrics - Quiet World - Native Construct

You and I 

Could be entwined in love for the rest of our lives 

And yet I can't begin 

To utter words of my affection within (to you) 

But love always finds a way to speak out 

I'll write the words I can't form with my mouth 

And I'll wait for you to change your mind 

And to find - find the love you keep inside 

I'll write you these letters that speak straight from my heart 

I'll tell you my secrets and share all my dreams with you 

But love is lost on you, as it seems 

So I try to move on, but still 

Your familiar face lingers around 

You should be 

Composing symphonies of love with me 

And yet it's he and not me 

This world was meant for only two and not three (two, not three) 

I suppose it isn't your fault you don't care (not your fault you don't care) 

'Cause no one said that this life would be fair 

But when you scatter these letters across my heart ('cross his heart) 

You leave (him) - leave me with a burning scar 

I wrote you these letters that spoke straight from my heart 

I told you my secrets and shared all my dreams with you 

But love is meaningless, as it seems 

So I try to move on, but still 

Your familiar face lingers around 

You will never understand what 

It is like to be torn down and forgot 

To live life ever needing what 

Will forever be outside of your clutch 

You have left me alone with my mind 

You have left me to discover my sinister side 

But still, your familiar face lingers around...
