i've always wanted to know,
i've always wanted to ask.
i've always wanted to tell you,
i've always wanted to show.

while you're ready to answer,
i'm too scared to decipher
the truth behind your words,
it is now or never.

if i choose to ask you now,
will it just hurt me a little?
or must i choose to ask you never,
and save us both from being strangers?
