Out here in the quiet of the night,
Beneath the stars and moon
We both know we've got somethin' on our minds
We won't admit, but it's true
You look at me, I look away
(Chorus)
I wanna tell you what I'm feeling
But I don't know how to start
I wanna tell you, but now I'm afraid
That you might break my heart
Oh, why should anything so easy
Ever be so hard to do?
I wanna tell you what I'm feeling
And to say that I love you
I practice all the things that I could say,
Line by line, every word
I tell myself today could be the day,
But every time I lose my nerve
I look at you, you look away
Repeat Chorus
Why, why do you turn away
It must be you're afraid like me
I try, but I can't pretend that I
Don't feel for you the way I do
Can't you see
