intro

Verse 1

You ask me if I love you, and I choke on my reply.

I'd rather hurt you honestly, than mislead you with a lie

And who am I to judge you on what you say or do

I'm only just beginning to see the real you.

Chorus

And sometimes when we touch. The honesty's too much

And I have to close my eyes, and hide.

I wanna hold you till I die, till we both break down, and cry.

I want to hold you till the fear in me subsides.

Verse2

Romance in all its strategy has me battling with my pride

But though the insecurity some tenderness survies

Im just another writer still trapped with in my truths

A hesitant prize fighter still trapped with in my youth.

Chorus

And sometimes when we touch the honestys too much

and I have to close my eyes, and hide

I wanna hold you till I die till we both breakdown, and cry

I wanna hold you till the fear in me subsides

Bridge

At times Id like to hold you and drive you to your knees

at times Id like to break through, and hold you endlessly

at times I understand you, and I know how hard you try

Ive watched while love commands you and Ive watched love pass you by

At times I think were drifters, still searching for a friend

a brother or a sister, but then the passion flares again.

Repeat chorus.
