Inside My Heart

I want to say so much to you
but I am scared
if I say the wrong thing
you will go away

I would be very sad
if you went away
but I cannot say that
to keep you here

Instead I talk of other things
so that you will stay
not what is really
in my heart

It scares me to tell you
how I feel
I think that you will run
and leave me here all alone

How will I find the way
the way to win your heart
that is what I want
your heart your love

I want to tell you
the depth of my emotion
just how much I have fallen
under the spell of you

but if I do
will you stay
or run because
you do not want that much

I wish that I could find
the way to tell you this
to let you know
I love you
