How can I tell you
To put it all in words
There is so much left to say
But the meaning slips away
How can I show you
To see it through my eyes
Dont deny that part of you
Thats been dying for it too
How do I know if I give you too much
Will I snare you away
How do I know when to leave you alone
When to beg you to stay
I wanna know

*just how much love does it take
To get to you
I stand here ready to break
Tell me, tell me
How much love does it take*

Moment to moment
I dont know where it stands
Will I end up like the rest
Well its anybodys guess
Can I persuade you
So softly in a touch
It is all a waste of time
Well Im only wasting mine
How do I know if I give you too much
Will I scare you away
How do I know when to leave you alone
When to beg you to stay
I wanna know

( * repeat)

How do I know when to leave you alone
When to beg you to stay
I wanna know

( * repeat-)
