More Than Words

You say the words I long to hear But, do you even know The words you say, they bring me fear Because you cannot show. It is more than words of which I need I need actions, spontaneity, desire. Let not your love be only words, But, let it be your fire. Let it consume you, day by day Let it steal your very breath Let it control your every thought Let it be with you ‘til death. Let it be your thought when you rise. Let it guide you through your day. Let it be your final thought at night. Let it show you the true way. So, when you feel like saying words And not supporting with an action Remember that I’ve already heard them And now just want some satisfaction.
