Sounding Corny

These tireless thoughts rush around my head
They just won't go away
I am thinking it's because of you
But I just don't know what to say

I don't want to ruin this friendship
But I think if I don't say what I really feel
I might die... from closure
I need to talk to you... but I just don't know how

I walk by you everyday
I open my mouth to say something
But then you smile...
And nothing comes out

I want to tell you
I love you... whether or not you want me to
But I don't want to sound... corny
I don't know how you'll take it

I just want you to love me back
I just want to be yours
I just want to be with you
Is that too much to ask?
