The torture of being in love and afraid to say so
I can smell you on my skin.  I hold my love within.
The sweat from your body lingers... your voice echoes in my head.
I ache for your lips, and the sound of your breath.
But  memories of last night are all I have left.

You're with me every moment.  I wish I could tell you so
But like I said...All the time in the world...
We have  to take it slow.

I want to tell you I love you.  There's nothing I can do.
You're the one who makes me normal, The one who makes life true.
But I have to wait  till the time is right to say "there's only you.".
...So, for now... to you...
I can smell you on my skin, and I hold my love within.
