I Love You

There is a melody playing in the wind
I hear it calling out saying
So many things over and over again
I see a fire burning in the center of your eyes
While you stare at me
I can see 
You want to cry out like I do and say
I love you
I love you 
I love you

And I feel like I can’t say 
What I really want to say to you,
Yes I am afraid
So please tell me do you feel the same
I can feel the heat rising from the inside out
Burning like a flame
It just keeps crying out
Oh- I hope you know I will keep wishing
You would just give in and cry out 
the way that I want to cry out and say
I love you 
I love you 
I love you
Well Im standing here on the egde
All I have to do is take a few more steps
But I can hardly catch my breath
From the inside out I  am crying
I love you
I love you 
I love you
Oh- And I will not keep waiting any longer to hear you say
I love you 
I love you
I love you
I have chosen to step away from the egde
And forever I plege 
Not to let you hear me cry
I love you
I love you
I love you
