If I told you

What would you say?

If I told you that I loved you

You would probably start to cry

So let me say I care for you

With a care that never dies

So many things that I could say

But sometimes they are best just locked away

β€οΈβ“πŸ’™β“β€οΈβ“πŸ’™β“

If I told you, you are on my mind

Every minute of every day

Would that seem unkind?

I guess what I am trying to say

I will always be there for you

No matter what you do

β€οΈβ“πŸ’™β“β€οΈβ“πŸ’™β“Β 

If I told you that you need me now

Would you say all is lost?

Would you let me show you how

Or would that be too much a cost

How do I get through to you

Tell me what I have to do

β€οΈβ“πŸ’™β“β€οΈβ“πŸ’™β“

If I told you that life is unkind

We all have struggles to survive

Would you think I was naΓ―ve or blind?

I’m just trying to keep your heart alive

If I told you, you can always call

I will always be there when you fall

β€οΈβ“πŸ’™β“β€οΈβ“πŸ’™β“

If I told you, I don’t know what to do

The solution just escapes me

Would you think I was lying to you?

How it will end, we’ll have to see

If I told you that I loved you

What exactly would you do?

β€οΈβ“πŸ’™β“β€οΈβ“πŸ’™β“

[A/n: Sometimes the answers to questions might seem so logical to one person but not so logical to the other. This is especially true for love.]

Till next time,

Calvin
