What I'm about to say Will take the kind of courage used to Cut a wire from a bomb The kinds of things that you will hear, will resemble A bottle of wine fermented too long My mouth is dry, I'm up in the sky My stomach's starting to dance Before I die, I have to try I'm gonna take the chance But oh, there's a risk that you'd go away We'd lose the friendship we're enjoying right now But there might also be regret if we throw away The more-than-friendship we'd be missing somehow So I was thinking maybe later you would wanna go out? We could walk around oval as usual, asking what life is about Maybe I'd tell you that the couple years We've spent together touched my life to the core Maybe I'd tell you that I love you And I want to love you more Tell me how to get to you Tell me tell me tell me tell me Tell what you want me to do And if you're listening And thinking Is this song about me? Maybe maybe maybe maybe You are a work of art I'm captivated by the things that you do Though I'd be jealous of a man who tries to win your heart My goal is that he'd envy me too So I was thinking maybe later you would wanna go out? We could walk, and talk, and travel, read And watch, and figure out what life is about Maybe I'd tell you that the couple years We've spent together proved our friendship true Maybe I'd tell you that I love you And maybe it's time that you knew I know for certain that I love you And I hope you love me too
