If I could
Id put away my sorrow
I wouldnt wait until tomorrow
To let you know how I feel
If I could
Id look you in the eyes
And it wouldnt be a surprise
I would know what to say
But Im afraid
Of whats at stake
Of what a love like
This could do
Oh its my fate
To hesitate
From saying I love you
But I would if
You said youd never leave
This little promise always to keep
This broken heart that wants you
If I could
Every time you held me close
Remembering when love at most
Burned in flames
Died away
If I could
Id take you by the hand
And Im sure youd understand
Why it is I want you so
But Im afraid
Of whats at stake
Of what a love like
This could do
Oh its my fate
To hesitate
From saying I love you
But I would if
You said youd never leave
This little promise always to keep
This broken heart that wants you
