my first original song in a while!!

lyrics
the day that i first met you i was wearing a mask
you didn't know my name but you didn't really ask
that's how it was for months, strangers talking every day
you never even knew that behind the mask i wasn't okay

cause whenever i felt lonely
i liked to pretend i wasn't me
and you'd pretend you weren't you
and you were fine with it too
that's how i spent half a year
just running from my fears

a long long time went by, everything was still the same
until one day you smiled and finally asked my name
i was nervous at first, i did not know what to say
so i just took a deep breath and i put the mask away
i found out i didn't need it and that you liked my bare face
but i had never expected our lives to interlace

and now whenever i'm lonely
i know you're always there waiting for me
and i'm here waiting for you
i won't hide like i used to
cause you're my universe
that's why i wrote this verse
to tell you i love you
i love you

no mask

Little song I wrote and also my first song in Portuguese. The lyrics are from the poem "Nova, Nova, Nova, Nova," by Irene Lisboa.
(Nova means "new" in Portuguese)
