I Could be True to You

Just in case you're wondering why I've never tried to kiss you
It isn't 'cause I haven't wanted to
Lately I've been noticing that when you're gone I miss you
I'm hoping that you feel the same way too

I've been burned by love before I'm sure you know the feeling
And to tell the truth I'm really kind of shy
Listen while I sing to you the secret I'm revealing
My heart told me to let you know that I...I..

Chorus:

I could be true to you
You could be the only one
I'll ever want to make love to
I long to see the morning sun
Shining on your sleeping eyes
Awakened to the brand new day
I could be true to you that's all I really want to say

Just in case you're wondering why I've never tried to hold you
I don't want you to get the wrong idea
There's nothing that I'd rather do than feel my arms enfold you
But it's more than something physical I feel

I've been hurt by love before I'm sure you know the feeling
And to tell the truth I'm really kind of shy
So listen while I sing to you you'll find my words revealing
I might be slow, but someday I'm gonna try

Repeat Chorus:

Tag: I could be true to you that's all I really want to say
