I’ve been dying to tell you
Exactly how I feel
But I can’t find the words to say it
When I think I’ve got the right words
They come out all wrong
I could tell you I love you
But I don’t know if I mean it
I could say that I hate you
But I know that I don’t feel it
I could tell you that I don’t care
But I know it wouldn’t be true
Every time we kiss
I feel more than you think I do
I think I’m just afraid
Of not being true to you
I wonder in one year’s time
Where will we be?
A shop, skip, jump, and miles apart
I told you I was scared
Afraid to be hurt again
Maybe afraid to hurt you
I’ve finally got the words together
With no steady flow
How do I feel about you?
You may never know
