Questions of The Heart
Do you love me,With all your heart and soul?
Do you want me,
Or do you want something more?
Do you yearn for me,
The way I do for you?
Do you care about me,
The way I care about you?
I need to know all of this.
I need to know the whole truth.
I've got a stake in this,
Just the same as you.
I am giving you my life,
So I need to know it all.
Would you be willing to catch me,
If I were to fall?
I care so much for you.
I need to know you feel the same.
Would you still love me,
If I were to change?
Will you stand beside me,
Or will you always try to lead?
Will we be partners,
Or will you try to be the boss of me?
Will we stand together,
Or will I stand alone?
Will you hold me forever,
Or will you eventually let me go?
Will you always be my friend,
Or will you drop me like a rock?
Will we be a team and blend,
Or will we fall apart?
I don't mean to sound so insecure,
Or needy or lonely or scared.
But I have to know some of what the future holds,
Otherwise I feel adrift and I can't think clear.
My brain becomes muddled,
My feelings flip through to many gears.
So I have to know how you feel,
About the time that we have here.
So do me a favor and be honest.
There need be no lies.
There is no need to sugar coat it,
You need not pluck pretty words from the sky.
I want us to be together.
But you have to tell me the truth.
Do you love me,
The way that I love you?
