Hello, tell me you know
Yeah, you figured me out
Something gave it away
It would be such a beautiful moment to see the look on your face
To know that I know that you know now
And baby, that's a case of my wishful thinking
You know nothing
Well, you and I, why, we go carrying on for hours on end
We get along much better than you and your boyfriend
Well, all I really want to do is love you
A kind much closer than friends use
But I still can't say it after all we've been through
And all I really want from you is to feel me
As the feeling inside keeps building
And I will find a way to you if it kills me
If it kills me
How long can I go on like this, wishing to kiss you
Before I rightly explode?
Well, this double life I lead isn't healthy for me
In fact, it makes me nervous
If I get caught, I could be risking it all
'Cause maybe there's a lot that I miss in case I'm wrong
All I really want to do is love you
A kind much closer than friends use
But I still can't say it after all we've been through
And all I really want from you is to feel me
As the feeling inside keeps building
And I will find a way to you if it kills me
If it kills me
If it kills me, ah
If I should be so bold
I'd ask you to hold my heart in your hand
I'd tell you from the start how I've longed to be your man
But I never said a word
I guess I've gone and missed my chance again
Well, all I really want to do is love you
A kind much closer than friends use
I still can't say it after all we've been through
And all I really want from you is to feel me
As the feeling inside keeps building
And I will find a way to you if it kills me
If it kills me, if it kills me
Oh, I think it might kill me
And all I really want to do is to feel you
Yeah, the feeling inside keeps building
I'll find a way to you if it kills me, if it kills me
It might kill me
