Don't wanna open your heart
|
You're afraid from the start
|
That a new love's gonna let you down
|
There is something you should know
|
Before you give up and go
|
I don' believe in the run around
|
I just want to define myself
|
And show you how l feel
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
If a promise ain't enough
|
Then a touch says everything
|
Got to hold you in my arms
|
Till you feel what I mean
|
Know that my heart just teIls me what to say
|
But words can only prove so much
|
If a promise ain't enough
|
|
Hold onto my love
|
Though my words can't describe
|
How I'm feeling all inside
|
Does my touch say anything to you
|
L'm not afraid to take time
|
Cause I know you'lI find
|
That l'm real and my touch is true
|
It's taken a lifetime to find my heart
|
And I give it all to you
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
It took a lifetime to find what I want
|
I won't let it get away
|
|
[Chorus]
|
