Afraid For Love To Fade by Lea Salonga

(jose mari chan)


My head's in a jam
Can't take you off my mind
From the time we met
I've been beset by thoughts of you
And the more that i ignore this feeling
The more i find myself believing
That i just have to see you again

I can't let you pass me by
I just can't let you go
But i know that i am much too shy
To let you know
Afraid that i might say the wrong words
And displease you
Afraid for love to fade
Before it can come true

Like a child again
I'm at a loss for words
How does one define
A crush combined with longing?
Longing to possess you oh so dearly
I'm obsessed by you completely
I'll go mad if i can't have you

I can't let you pass me by
I just can't let you go
But i know that i am much too shy
To let you know
Afraid that i might say the wrong words
And displease you
Afraid for love to fade
Before it can come true

(instrumental)

I can't let you pass me by
I just can't let you go
Let me say the things and say the words
To let you know
I would rather say the awkward words
Than lose you
Or for love to fade
Before it can come true
