Lyrics
How I long to tell you that I love you
Love finds a way, so poets say
Every dream I dream is only of you
Come cuddle near and listen, dear
Refrain
I’m confessing that I love you
Tell me, do you love me too?
I’m confessing that I need you
Honest I do, need you every moment
In your eyes I read such strange things
But your lips deny they’re true
Will your answer really change things
Making me blue?
I’m afraid, someday you’ll leave me
Saying, “Can’t we still be friends?”
If you go, you know you’ll grieve me
All in life on you depends
Am I guessing that you love me?
Dreaming dreams of you in vain?
I’m confessing that I love you over again
