Tearing Me Up Inside

I've been walking in circles

Watching you everyday

I've been taking every care

Not to scare you away

I've made you my friend

You've put your trust in me

I'm a shoulder t cry on

Whenever you're in need

I've been reading your ways

Looking for a sign

Is there any chance at all

That I can make you mine

Well I've come this far

but there's a longer way to go

My chances look slim

But soon I will know

It's tearing me up inside

Holding back for you

Feelings are hard to hide

They're 'bout to slip right through

It's tearing me up inside

I don't know what to do

I know I'll lose this fight

How can I let you know

I've been trying lately

To show you a secret way

I reached out to touch you gently

Stricken by your grace

I just hope that you see

And help me brake this pain

If I lose you by telling

It's all been in vain

It's tearing me up inside

Holding back for you

Feelings are hard to hide

They're 'bout to slip right through

It's tearing me up inside

I don't know what to do

I know I'll lose this fight

How can I let you know ohoh

There was a time before when I thought I was brave

But now I'm here with you I shiver and I shake

I fight the words of love and it all comes crashing down

I close my eyes

I let them go

I have to let you know

It's tearing me up inside

Holding back for you

Feelings are hard to hide

They're 'bout to slip right through ooh

It's tearing me up inside

I don't know what to do

I know I'll lose this fight

How can I let you know that

It's tearing me up insiiiide

Oh

It's tearing me up inside

I don't know what to do

I know I'll lose this fight

How can I let you know ohohoh
