Forgive me, my love,   For hiding my soul from you.   It seems easier for us   If I don't show all of myself.      How am I gonna tell you how I miss you?    How am I gonna tell you how I need you?    Through pride and hurt and love and fear   We lay an ocean between us.      Forgive me, my love,   For closing my eyes to our love.   It seems easier for us   If we thought this was just a play.      How am I gonna tell you how I miss you?    How am I gonna tell you how I need you?    Through pride and hurt and love and fear   We hold an ocean inside us.      Let me take your hand   And press it on my breast   And you will know that   The ocean is for you.
