Rejoicing in the truth

Standing at my window
Hidden by the night
Harboring the private wounds
Safe and out of sight
There's an agony in living
But there's a comfort in the truth
That no one knows my heart
Better than you

I can face a lot of people
With this sanguine act of mine
Guarded by the eloquence
I sometimes hide behind
But it's a veil of false pretenses
That you can see right through
'Cause no one knows my heart
Better than you

Part of me is reaching
Part of me holds back
But when it comes to you
I am a doorway
You're free to walk into
'Cause no one knows my heart
Better than you

There's an agony in living
But there's a comfort in the truth
That no one knows my heart
Better than you

--from the song "No One Knows My Heart" by Susan Ashton/Billy Sprague/Wayne Kirkpatrick
