I want to tell you I love you
But I think you already know
I’m trying to hold the words back
But I think I let it show.
I dream about you every night
I can feel you in the rain
Not being with you
Only brings me pain.
You are the air I breathe
I need you every day
I want to pick up the phone
But I’m not sure what to say.
My stomach jumps
My heart beats faster
I can barely speak
But only when I’m close to you.
You make me feel something I’ve never felt
At the same time I don’t know what I feel
I know you feel it too
You can’t tell me this isn’t real.
I can help you fight your demons
If only you would allow me to
I’ve been through my own struggle
Now I’m willing to fight for you
If only you would let your guard down
And let me into your life
I’ll help you mend your broken heart
And someday be your wife.
I want to tell you I love you
But I think you already know
I just can’t hold the words back
Because I let it show.
