Lyrics

[Verse 1] You can't pretend 'cause I can see You're not the boy you used to be Trust me with a secret you can't keep I watch your eyes, they shift with doubt (Ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah) So every night, when stars come out (Ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah) I try to read your personality [Chorus] The writing for pleasure you wouldn't let me read (You would not let me read) The things you miss out when you try to mislead (When you try to mislead) You said you wrote a page about me in your diary (Ah-ah, ah-ah) [Verse 2] Your heart, a place that no one sees (Ah) You can't despise your own unease (Ah-ah, ah-ah) (Ah-ah) Trust me with a secret you can't keep (Ah, ah, ah-ah) [Chorus] The writing for pleasure you wouldn't let me read (You would not let me read) The things you miss out when you try to mislead (When you try to mislead) You said you wrote a page about me in your diary (Ah-ah, ah-ah) [Post-Chorus] Don't be so afraid There's bound to be a place No matter who or where you are You've got to be willing You've got to be willing [Chorus] The writing for pleasure you wouldn't let me read (You would not let me read) The things you miss out when you try to mislead (When you try to mislead) You said you wrote a page about me in your diary (Ah-ah, ah-ah) [Post-Chorus] Don't be so afraid You're bound to make mistakes No matter who or where you are You've got to be willing [Outro] Don't be so afraid There's bound to be a place No matter who or where you are You've got to be willing You've got to be willing Ah-ah, ah, ah
