I get a little tongue twisted   Every time I talk to you when I see you   And I'm so glad that you just missed it   The way I stared to memorize your face      To kiss you in my mind   Love you all the time      'Cause when I close my eyes   I still can see your smile   It's bright enough to light my life   Out of my darkest hour      Please believe it's true   When I tell you I love you      I've taken too many chances   Searching for the truth in love that's in my heart   Tell me if I made the wrong advances   Tell me if I've made you feel ashamed      'Cause I know I have to do this   Would you hold my hand right through it?      'Cause when I close my eyes   I still can see your smile   It's bright enough to light my life   Out of my darkest hour      Please believe it's true   When I tell you I love you      I had to let you know just what would happen   Yes I had to let you know the truth   I know I've got to do this   Would you hold my hand right through it? Would you?      'Cause when I close my eyes   I still can see your smile   It's bright enough to light my life   Out of my darkest hour      'Cause when I close my eyes   I still can see your smile   It's bright enough to light my life   Out of my darkest hour      You know now this is true   When I tell you I love you
