If You Ever Knew - Official audio by Nqishhh

“If You Ever Knew” is a song about loving someone quietly —
a feeling you keep hidden deep inside because you’re afraid that saying it out loud might change everything.
It’s about the kind of love that feels soft, painful, and beautiful at the same time.
A love you never confess… but never stop feeling.


lyrics

[Verse 1]-
I see you in the quiet
When the world is falling still
You’re laughing with your friends
But somehow I’m the one who feels
Like my heart is getting louder
Every time you come around
But I keep it hidden deeper
’Cause I’m scared to let it out

[Pre-Chorus]-
I wish I had the courage
To tell you how I feel
But every time you look at me
It suddenly feels real…

]Chorus]-
If you ever knew
How my heart beats just for you
Maybe things would change
Or maybe I would lose you
So I keep it in the dark
Safe and quiet in my heart
’Cause loving you
Is something I can’t say
But something I can’t stop

[Verse 2]-
You ask me if I’m okay
And I smile like nothing’s wrong
But you’ll never hear the truth
Hiding in these quiet songs
I wish you knew the reason
Why I never meet your eyes
It’s easier to stay silent
Than to watch the moment die

[Pre-Chorus]-
Maybe in another life
I’d finally speak your name
But for now I’m standing here
Loving you from far away

[Chorus]-
If you ever knew
How my heart beats just for you
Maybe things would change
Or maybe I would lose you
So I keep it in the dark
Safe and quiet in my heart
’Cause loving you
Is something I can’t say
But something I can’t stop

[Bridge]-
Maybe one day you’ll hear it
In the tremble of my voice
But until that moment comes
Silence is my only choice

[Final Choru]-
If you ever knew
How much I’m falling into you
Would you hold me closer
Or would everything be over?
So I keep it in the dark
Safe and quiet in my heart
Loving you
Is something I can’t say
But something I can’t stop
