If You Love Me

(album: Life's Aquarium - 1999)

[Spoken Words, Stokley:]
"Got this feeling in my heart,
That's yearning for you
I hope that you feel the same
This yearning that I do.

If you love me
Like you say you do
Why don't you show me
Just how much you do
If you love me unconditionally
Say that you always, always be with me

In my heart, there is a love that's yearning for you.
Let me know if you feel the same, this yearning that I do.
All I know is that I need a love, to give me what I need.
Don't be afraid or hesitate, I'm trying to make you see,
Oh, it's gotta be.

If you love me
Like you say you do
Why don't you show me
Just how much you do
If you love me unconditionally
Say that you always, always be with me

Oh the words that you didn't say, pushed me away from you.
Words of love that I need to hear, to let me know you do.
Through the night, I dry my eyes for now I have learned.
Lonley tears, they fall the same, when love is not returned.
Love is not returned.

If you love me
Like you say you do
Why don't you show me
Just how much you do
If you love me unconditionally
Say that you always, always be with me
