As I looked into his eyes
And found his longing stare
I stopped myself from saying words
That would show how much I care
I put my hand up to his face
To hold my feelings in
I wouldn't say those words again
To show my love for him
The last time I had told him
How much he meant to me
He put my hands away from his
And said to leave him be
I never spoke the words again
For fear of his deep fright
I thought it was the last time
Until that blissful night
His fingers traced around my face
Pushing my hair away
And I was quite unprepared
For what he had to say
My heart beat quickly, my head raced on
I thought that I might cry
He looked as if he might faint
Imagine this strong guy
But never would I be more impressed
With anything he would do
Than when he took a heartfelt leap
And told me 'I Love You'
