And I tie my heart onto my sleeve
Leave it there for you to see
Will you break it take it away
Or will you love me anyway
I never thought to do you wrong
Only sought to love you
And I did, all along
But you never knew
'Cause I could not seem to tell you
I could not say those forsaken words
I was afraid of what they meant
Yet I knew deep inside
In my heart and in my mind
That my life could never be the same
Had I never heard your name
Had I never spoken to you
My life would have continued its dark hue
But I can see something
I never thought to find
And I just can't seem to mind
When you say you love me
'Cause that's the only way it should be

When you twist around to see the past you're missing your chance to glimpse the future.

You have found the words and they are beautiful.
Sometimes we do not trust ... but when love is felt it is always right to tell.
Love, Margherita

"'Cause that's the only way it should be"

This line sums it up really, beautiful simplicity, yet 'should' and are seem poles apart sometimes

Thanks.  I still am dreadfully confused about all this...It's all so confusing!  But I hope I can figure it out eventually.
