If I [C]could
I'd [F]put away my [C]sorrow
I wouldn't [F]wait until [Am]tomorrow
To let you [G]know how I [F]feel
If I [C]could
I'd[F] look you in th[C]e eyes
And it would[F]n't be a [Am]surprise
I would [G]know what to [F]say
Bu[F]t I'm a[G]fraid
Of what's at [Am]stake
Of what a [F]love like
This could[G] do
Oh[F] it's my [G]fate
To hesit[Am]ate
From s[F]aying I lo[G]ve you
But I would if
You said you'd never leave
This little promise
always to keep
This broken heart
that wants you
If I could
Every time you held me close
Remembering when love at most
Burned in flames
Died away
If I could
I'd take you by the hand
And I'm sure you'd understand
Why it is I want you so
But I'm afraid
Of what's at stake
Of what a love like
This could do
Oh it's my fate
To hesitate
From saying I love you
But I would if
You said you'd never leave
This little promise
always to keep
This broken heart
that wants you
