What can I do to tell you?
by Tristan M Dooley

If I could give my heart to you, I would,
However, I'm too late, it already belongs to you.
If I could give you the stars, I would,
Yet I can't, I see them already shining in your eyes.

I would give you the world if I could, but it is not mine to give,
You remain without a clue how I feel, I can't say it,
I'm so afraid you will never see me the same again,
If I had my soul in my possession I would give it to you,
You have that at this time as well.

What can I do to tell you...
How can I go to you and say how I feel?
Is there a way around this...
Why do I have to love you?

If there was a way to tell you without being afraid, 
I wish to know it,
Then I would have done it a long time ago,
If I knew whether I was worthy of you 
I would not be waiting to tell you.

What can I do to tell you...
How can I be rid of my fear?
Is this a risk I'm ready to take...
Why am I cursed to love again?

If you were here with me right now, I would spill my entire existence,
I would tell you ... you are the wind my wings ride upon,
I would tell you ... you are the air I breath,
I would tell you ... you make me feel complete.

What can I do to tell you...
I really wish I knew 
For you are the one whom I wait for.
