Softly

Right now
I thought we'd be
Driving 'round
Living wild
Loving happily
Somehow, you're not next to me
I tried and I lied and now you've gone away
Do you tell him all the things you used to say to my face
If you do here's what you told me

If you love me
Hold me softly
You're the only one
I want, I want

I would die for you
I would lie for you
I'd give my life to you
If you love me
Hold me softly
Those were the words
You used to tell me
And I hope you tell him that
Oh, I hope you tell him that

Driving past
Your house again
See your mother and your father and your silhouette
Is it you, in that flower dress?
Do you remember all the times
When I told you I was scared you'd go away?
All the nights we talked and memories are fading to gray?
When you left here's what you told me

If you love me
Hold me softly
You're the only one
I want, I want

I would die for you
I would lie for you
I'd give my life to you
If you love me
Hold me softly
Those were the words
You used to tell me
And I hope you tell him that
Oh, I hope you tell him that

And wow, why don't you see
My love, you're all I need
And wow, you're the part of me
I've tried too hard to see

Maybe I've lost my composure
You're the one that was holding me together
And maybe this wasn't forever
I can't ignore the proof
It hurts me, 'cause it's true
I'm still in love with you

I would die for you
I would lie for you
I'd give my life to you
If you love me
Hold me softly
I tell you this
So you believe me
I'm still in love with you
Yeah, I'm still in love with you
