BUT

I want to tell you I love you

But I don't really know you.

I want to tell you how you make me feel

But I don't even know if you're real.

I want to tell you what you mean to me

But I don't even know if you will take time to know me.

My world was empty before you walked in

Days seamed like weeks, they were shallow, week and thin.

Now the sun shines more and more and oh the air is young and sweet

The grass feels so cool on my naked feet.

I want to tell you what your contact means to me

But I will only hint and sit back and see

I long to feel you lips on mine, the lasting taste stays on my mind

But the fear of rejection is a fear of the worst kind.

I remember what it feels like to hug you and hold you tight

But that thought barely gets me through the night.

A call, a note, a line on the screen

That's all it takes to make my smile beam

I know this cant last, it will go away on day

Till then I will enjoy it and let my fears slip away.

I want to look into your beautiful blue eyes and see your mind

But what if I do and then the magic starts to unwind

I want to hear your laugh, your voice, your moan, your sigh

But what if it ends, will I die or just cry.

I want to know if this is all real.

But if this is my destiny, is this is my deal

Is this something that fate wants me to do

But what if I have to find out there will never be a me and you.

So I will keep at it, I tell you no lie

But I will keep my thoughts positive or at least I will always try

Give me a chance to learn how to love

But no more but's I will show you and heaven above.
