1. [A] Here I am [E] standing close to you
[C#7] And yet still so [F#m7] far away
So [D] many times I [C#m7] tried to [F#m7]say
[Bm7] But my heart was [E] afraid

2. [A] Look at you is [E] all that I can do
[C#7] Like a silly girl [F#m7] I stare
'Cause [D] you might leave me [C#m7] when I re-[F#m7] veal
[Bm7] What my [E7] heart is [A] really feeling

Chorus: [E7] If I could just [A] say the words
All the [E] secrets in my heart
And in my [F#m] soul you'll hear
Will you [C#m] take me in your arms
Or [D] let me go, our [C#m] lovely days
Will [Bm7]they just fade like [E7] whispers In the wind

[E7] If I could just [A] say the words
All the [E] secrets in my heart
And in my [F#m7] soul you'll hear
Can't you [C#m] see the love I hide slip [D] through my eyes
This silly [C#m] girl so [F#7] scared
[Bm7] She just can't [E7] say I love [A] you [E7]

3. [A] Here I am [E] holding on to fate
[C#7] What we have may [F#m7] never change
'Cause [D] you might leave me [C#m7] when I re-[F#m7] veal
[Bm7] My lips will [E7] seal the love I'm [A] hiding
