Tell Me You Love Me
Tell Me You Love Me
Do I really need to tell you
Those three little words you long to hear?
Do my actions not suffice
Is our relationship's longevity
Not enough to satisfy you?
Good times and bad, we've survived
Do I really need to tell you.
Do I really need to tell you
That our love is like the ocean?
Deep, mysterious and eternal
We're bonded together, you and me
Like decades worth of barnacles
Welded to undersea structures
Do I really need to tell you?
Do I really need to tell you
Our love manifests through our children?
By the way they raise their own
To love and respect themselves
And others, no matter who they are
By the love we receive in return
Do I really need to tell you?
Do I really need to tell you
After all, we are still together?
We trust in each other
If you are in trouble, I'll be there
If you are hurt, I am too
We are soul mates, you and me
Do I really need to tell you?
