If you could only see
That I was not put here for you
To judge me and dispute my innermost truth
And after all these years of enmity, envy,
And tears
It's a shame you don't know me at all
I was wondering
Would you cry for me
If I told you that I couldn't breathe
If I was drowning, suffocating
If I told you that I couldn't breathe?
Those ancient buried recollections
We transform them and select them
You have yours, I have mine
That's fine
Why are we too torn to heal?
Our stitches never disappeared
I have mine, you have yours
I'm sure
I was wondering
(I've been wondering)
Would you reach for me
If you saw that I was languishing?
I was wondering
Would you cry for me
If I told you that I couldn't breathe?
If I was drowning, suffocating?
If I told you that I couldn't breathe?
I gotta take a little time
A little time to think things over
I better read between the lines
In case I need it when I'm colder, hey
In my life, there's been heartache and pain
I don't know if I can face it again
Can't stop now, I've traveled so far
To change this lonely life
I wanna know what love is
I want you to show me
I wanna feel what love is
I know you can show me
I'm gonna take a little time
A little time to look around me
I've got nowhere left to hide
It looks like love has finally found me
In my life, there's been heartache and pain
I don't know if I can face it again
Can't stop now, I've traveled so far
To change this lonely life
I wanna know what love is
I want you to show me
I wanna feel what love is (Feel what love is)
And I know you can show me, show me
I wanna know
I wanna know what love is
I want you to show me
(And I'm feeling so much love)
I wanna feel what love is
And I know you can show me
I wanna know what love is
Let's talk about love
I want you to show me
