I Love You

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
