You say that you're leaving
And that there's nothing I can say or do
To change your mind
You claim that my feelings
Were never strong enough to see you through
But you were blind
When all my life, my heart has longed to sing this song
An endless fight to find the words to say to you
And by and by I never could quite figure how
But I will tell you now. I love you
Please hear me out
I know I'm coming at the midnight hour
You say that it's too late
Looking back I realize
That there was so much more that I could say
But I was afraid
When all my life, my heart has longed to sing this song
An endless fight to find the words to say to you
And by and by I never could quite figure how
But I will tell you now. I love you
I built a fortress around my heart
In hopes of shutting out the pain
And now I watch as all my efforts crumble to the ground
As you're slipping away...
When all my life, my heart has longed to sing this song
An endless fight to find the words to say to you
And by and by I never could quite figure how
But I will tell you now. I love you
