Last night after dinner
|
As I read the evening paper
|
I looked up to see a look
|
Of sadness in her eyes
|
|
I asked her what was wrong
|
She sighed and said its nothing
|
But something in that nothing
|
Made me realize
|
|
Chorus:
|
It wouldn't kill me
|
To show her that I love her
|
It wouldn't kill me
|
To make her feel alive
|
I could take more time to tell her
|
It wouldn't kill me
|
Like it would if she ever said good-bye
|
|
I don't know what gets in me
|
Not to take these precious moments
|
And share them with the only love
|
That makes them worth while
|
I get so caught up in other things
|
When the only thing that matters
|
Is the way she leaves me breathless
|
With the beauty of her smile
|
|
Chorus:
|
It wouldn't kill me
|
To show her that I love her
|
It wouldn't kill me
|
To make her feel alive
|
I could take more time to tell her
|
It wouldn't kill me
|
Like it would if she ever said good-bye
|

It Wouldn't Kill Me
