I've waited for
So long it's true
Hoping someday
I'd talk to you
The stars spelt
Your name at night
A quiet glow
A gentle light
I saw you once
You passed me by
A fleeting moment
Caught my eye
But words got stuck
Inside my head
A coward's heart failed the test
Oh shy heart don't fail me now
I've waited too long to know how
To speak the words I've kept inside
Love so pure it cannot hide
Each day I wonder what you'd say
If I found courage paved the way
Would you smile or would you turn
Would you see the love that burns
The silence holds a heavy weight
It's a habit I really must break
To cross to you and make it clear
That you're the one I hold most dear
Oh shy heart don't fail me now
I've waited too long to know how
To speak the words I've kept inside
Love so pure it cannot hide
