Would You

If I spoke of love so true,
And dimmed the lights for me and you,
If I wrote words to cheer your heart,
And I swore we would never part…
If I continued though you begged me to stop,
And I held you while in the tide we’re caught,
If I kissed away your tears,
And swore to stand here through the years…
If I spoke my heart to yours,
And my desires more than you endure,
If I whispered softly in your ear,
And my words seemed muddled and unclear…
If I glassed your eyes over…
If I made your heart skip a beat…
If I made your breath stop for just a second…
And you thought you would never be the same.
Would you do the same for me?
If you spoke words of love so true,
Dimmed the lights for me and you.
If you wrote words to cheer my heart,
Swear to me we would never part.
If you continued though I begged for you to stop,
And held me while in the tide I’m caught.
If you kissed away my tears,
Stood beside me for all the years.
If you spoke your heart to mine,
Desired me till I was blind.
If you whispered softly in my ear,
Until your words became unclear.
Would my heart skip a beat?
Would I too become weak?
