I struggle to find the words
I struggle to express
The way I feel about you
The feelings, in my heart, I caress.

I know you care about me,
I care about you too.
Day by day, hour by hour,
My thoughts are filled with you.

If I could tell you one thing,
If there is one thing you should know.
Is that my heart beats steadily for you.
From my heart, you will never go.

In the quiet hours of the darkness I lie
Contemplating, is this where it dies?
We promised to love, promised forever
What I should have done is say, never!

I cannot imagine what life would be
If I just walked away and let it be.
But I definitely cannot stay
To wrestle with this demon every day.

Sometimes its sunflowers and lilies in bloom
And other times I feel impending doom.
What do I do? It's so hard to know.
Do I stay, or do I go?

If I tell you
You would leave
And then I’d be left in a void
With my thoughts of you.
I’d tell you,
But you’ll get annoyed.

I don’t want just now,
I want eternity
Your love,
To call you mine.
I’d ask you to stay,
But you’d probably decline.

Give me one chance
To show you
What could be.
Holding
Caressing
Just you and me.
