How can I show that I love you
Without showing you what's inside?
Is there a way of loving without hurting,
Of being open and still hide?
I don't want to show you all there is of me.
Yet I want you inside me. How can that be?
Can you come in to my heart
And turn out the light?
Come in the morning,
And then say goodnight?
How can you know what makes me happy
Until you know what makes me blue?
I want you to love me
And never to leave me.
Somebody help me. What should I do?
Somebody help me. What should I do?
Promise not to laugh.
Promise not to criticize.
I'm going to show you all that there is.
Please look in to my eyes.
Come in to my heart
And turn on the light.
Come in the morning
And don't say goodnight.
Seeing inside me, my heart full of pain,
Knowing my sorrow, feeling my shame;
Hearing my laughter, and watching me cry:
Do you still love me?
Please don't say goodbye.
Promise not to laugh.
Promise not to criticize.
I'm going to show you all that there is.
Please look in to my eyes.
Come in to my heart
And turn on the light.
Come in the morning
And don't say goodnight.

Say it again, say that you love me.
Say it again, say that you're mine.
Say it again, you say it so sweetly.
Say it again, like the very first time.
Say it again, say that you want me.
Say it again, say that I'm strong.
Say it again, say that you need me.
Say it again, and all the night long.
When you say it,
I go to the moon.
The whole world's playing music.
And my life's in tune.
Say it again, say it forever.
Say it again, say it and smile.
Say it again, I'll tire of it never.
Say it again, just one more time.
When you say it,
I feel I can fly.
I know I'm in heaven,
But I didn't die.
Say it again and again and again.
Say it again and again
Say it again and again and again.
Say it again. I love you!
