I've been watching you a while   Since you walked into my life   Monday morning, when first I heard you speak to me   I was too shy to let you know   Much too scared to let my feelings show   But you shielded me, and that was the beginning      Now at last we can talk   In another way   And though I try   "I love you" is just so hard to say   If I only could be strong   And say the words I feel      My beating heart begins to race   When I turn to see your face   I remember that sweet dream   Which you told to me   I wanted just to be with you   So we could make the dream come true   And you smiled at me   And that was the beginning      Now at last we can talk   In another way   And though I try   "I love you" is just so hard to say   If I only could be strong   And say the words I feel      Tell me what you're thinking of   Tell me if you love me now   I had so much I longed to ask you   But now the chance has gone   While your picture fades each day   In my heart, the memory stays   Glowing bright, you're always smiling   And I will hold you close
