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 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 were 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
