You Ask Me If I Love You
by Louis Jenson
You ask me if I love you
And I don't know what to say
You're my best friend and my lover
The thought that starts each day

You ask me if I'll stay
But deep down I want to run
Though I cannot imagine life without you
You might just be the one

I don't know how to tell you
That I need and want you so
Your kiss, your touch, your eyes, your smile
Are things I can’t let go

But then you ask me if I love you
Those three words I cannot say
I’m afraid to give my love
And lose you anyway

But if you look into my eyes
You’ll know then that it's true
I might not ever say it
But just know friend that I do
