What I Probably Won'T Ever Tell You

There's a million things I want to say to you
But when I see you I lose my nerve
My mind goes blank
And my jaw doesn't work
My tongue gets all tied 
And I lose the words
So I probably won't ever tell you...

Don't know why you make me so nervous
I've never been afraid to speak my mind
It can't be that I lack courage
Maybe I've just too much pride

Every time you look at me
I sort of melt
Into a puddle at your feet
It's like I'm under some kind of spell
I start to fumble
And falter as well
That's why I'll probably never tell you...

You're so intense
But darling so am I
It doesn't make sense
That I should suddenly become shy

So here goes nothing
I'm gonna try this again
I think I love you
You're under my skin
Can't stop thinking of you
Want to be more than friends
So there it is, now I've told you...
