Lyrics
0:18You ask me if I love you
0:22And I choke on my reply
0:26I'd rather hurt you honestly
0:30Than mislead you with a lie
0:35And who am I to judge you
0:39In what you say or do?
0:43I'm only just beginning
0:47To see the real you
0:53And sometimes when we touch
0:57The honesty's too much
1:01And I have to close my eyes and hide
1:09I wanna hold you 'til I die
1:13'Til we both break down and cry
1:17I wanna hold you 'til the fear in me subsides
1:30Romance and all it's strategy
1:34Leaves me battling with my pride
1:38But through all the insecurity
1:42Some tenderness survives
1:46I'm just another writer
1:50Still trapped within my truth
1:54A hesitant prize fighter
1:58Still trapped within my youth
2:05And sometimes when we touch
2:09The honesty's too much
2:13And I have to close my eyes and hide
2:21I want to hold you 'til I die
2:25'Til we both break down and cry
2:29I want to hold you 'til the fear in me subsides
2:37At times I'd like to break you
2:41And drive you to your knees
2:46At times I'd like to break through
2:50And hold you endlessly
2:58At times I understand you
3:02And I know how hard you try
3:06I watched while love commands you
3:10And I've watched love pass you by
3:17At times I think we're drifters
3:20Still searching for a friend
3:25A brother or a sister
3:28But then the passion flares again
3:35And sometimes when we touch
3:39The honesty's too much
3:43And I have to close my eyes and hide
3:51I want to hold ya 'til I die
3:55'Til we both break down and cry
3:59I want to hold you 'til the fear in me subsides
4:08Subsides
4:12Mmm-mmm
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 In what you say or do? I'm only just beginning To see the real you And sometimes when we touch The honesty's too much And I have to close my eyes and hide I wanna hold you 'til I die 'Til we both break down and cry I wanna hold you 'til the fear in me subsides Romance and all it's strategy Leaves me battling with my pride But through all the insecurity Some tenderness survives I'm just another writer Still trapped within my truth A hesitant prize fighter Still trapped within my youth And sometimes when we touch The honesty's too much And I have to close my eyes and hide I want to hold you 'til I die 'Til we both break down and cry I want to hold you 'til the fear in me subsides At times I'd like to break you And drive you to your knees At times I'd like to break through And hold you endlessly At times I understand you And I know how hard you try I watched while love commands you And I've watched love pass you by At times I think we're drifters Still searching for a friend A brother or a sister But then the passion flares again And sometimes when we touch The honesty's too much And I have to close my eyes and hide I want to hold ya 'til I die 'Til we both break down and cry I want to hold you 'til the fear in me subsides Subsides Mmm-mmm
