All You Never Say Lyrics

Cover art for All You Never Say lyrics by Birdy

A song about a girl who goes through life, continuously searching for love, but felt as if she never learned anything through her failures. "Why have I not learnt a thing?"

She loves a person, but his kind words to her makes her daydreams that they could be more, but somehow his words doesn't really seem to convey any other deeper meaning.

She is wishing she could read and decipher what he's thinking. Is he only being nice, is he holding back, if only he could say those words "I love you" to her.
