If I show you how I feel today And tell you that I love you What would you do? My heart has turned into a song More than words could ever say Close your eyes for a moment Reach out your hand and touch me And don't you turn away from me Like everyone else did before you I really know for sure My love for you darling Is really true You made things better for me By telling me how you feel okay Just hold me close And never let me go away Now that I am talking to you through my poetry You must understand All you have to do is hold me close And never let me go Okay I have made my mistakes ”But my mistakes are No worse that yours Just because I am a woman” There are now only one place That I would rather be my love That would be in your arms right now Just close your eyes for a moment And you will hear me…you will see me I swear you will If I could touch you now my love There will be no better place to be Than to be with me right now The songs of life and the song of love Are singing to me now I am calling to you I want to be with you right now There were many times before That I have been wrong my love Many times that life did not treat me kind I have been so lonely But right now…this very moment All I want to do Is to be with you And I know things will be All right now… I am calling you… just reach out your hand
