Tell It Like It Is

Tell frankly what you really mean 
Not just by words, but by action 
For knowing good could be a sin 
If it's not put into motion 

Show love without hesitation 
For tomorrow may be too late 
Light now the flames of affection 
The hands of time can't dearly wait 

In being true, there is a prize 
You do not need to shy and hide 
Though mostly, love could have a price 
True love can bear the storm and tide 

My love for you is really true 
My sincere eyes can truly say 
You see it in the things I do 
Your love for me is what I pray
