Kokoro

Kokoro

I've been watching you a while

Since you walked into my life

Monday morning, when first I heard you speak to me

I was too shy to let you know

Much too scared to let my feeling show

But you shielded me and that was the beginning

Now at last we can talk in another way

And though I try, "I love you" is just so hard to say

If I only could be strong

And say the words I feel

My beating heart begins to race

When I turn to see your face

I remember that sweet dream which you told to me

I wanted just to be with you

So we could make the dream come true

And you smiled at me and that was the beginning

Now at last we can talk in another way

And though I try, "I love you" is just so hard to say

If I only could be strong

And say the words I feel

Tell me what you are thinking of

Tell me if you love me now

I had so much I loved to ask you

But now the chance has gone

While your picture fades each day

In my heart the memory stays

Glowing bright, you are always smiling

And I hold it close
