Sometimes I wonder
How things would be
If we were together
Me holding you
You holding me
If you spoke the words "I love you"
And you meant it true
If this wasn't my solo
Of "Love me do"
Perhaps if I were just a tad wiser
Would you love me too?
Would we sit up at night
And swap stories and secrets
By moon's haunting light?
Would your lips touch mine
And stay there like glue
If i meant just that much to you?
Or would our world crumble
From beneath tired feet
Would our hearts cry out
Locked in dragon's keep?
Would we blame ourselves right
For lashes from leather
For cuts in the night?
Would bruises chain us
To the love which made us
To the hearts which gave us
A feeling that's new?
But...
Sometimes I wonder
How things would be
If we, forever
Were just together
Like we should be.
I know your scared
But baby, I am too
But it's a risk I'm willing to take
If you'll let me be with you
Give me a chance
That's all I ask
Just one dance
With no mask
I'm happy we're friends
But I want to call you 'mine'
No flowers or chocolates
Not even a glass of wine
But my heart's on a platter
Waiting in your den
So be my manipulative uke
And I'll be your gentleman
