If love is to begin its course,
We must then tell the way we feel,
Because in love no minds will know,
Unless the head and heart do tell.

Life is too short to stand unseen,
Just take a chance and love another,
But we must first share how we feel,
Or love is gone and no more seen.

I knew a girl who stirred my soul,
Each day I longed to be with her,
But being shy I stopped my desire,
To watch another go quick to her.

I vowed to never let someone I loved,
Be gone before my heart revealed,
How I would live and die for one,
No longer chancing a love so sweet.

So, now I say be bold and brave,
If so rejected, then life is such,
But never hold your words at bay,
Even if it means such a heartfelt pain.

Another girl one day came dancing,
I took her hand and body near mine,
Then whispered my love into her ear,
Until the time she smiled agreed.

I am no longer afraid to love,
Then this is how my life unfolds,
Be bold and shout your passion so,
When a beautiful woman comes along.
