I've been down this lonely road a time or two before,
I always lose faith, and turn around;
This time something's different, this time I want more,
This time I swear I'm gonna stand my ground;
If you have an inkling that you might feel the same,
You don't have to say a word, well - maybe just my name
And kiss me like you mean it,
Don't leave me in the dark;
Tell me if you feel it,
Feel a little spark;
A spark that if we feed it,
Could turn into a flame;
Burn away the pretense,
Laying bare our shame;
The road I'm on is winding, and goes for many mile,
Glad you shine your light to lead the way;
When I see your pretty face I trip over my smile,
I Just wish I knew the words to say;
Hope like hell I'm making sense, and you catch my meaning,
If you get my drift now honey, why don't you just lean in,
And kiss me like you mean it,
Don't leave me in the dark;
Tell me if you feel it,
Feel a little spark;
A spark that if we feed it,
Could turn into a flame;
Burn away the pretense,
Laying bare our shame;
Sorry if I said to much, I'm known to overshare,
I'll understand if you walk away;
If you do it's just a cross I'll have to learn to bear,
Been carrying this torch 'round anyway
But if it's love I recognize, when I see you smile,
You don't have to do a thing but stay here for awhile,
And kiss me like you mean it,
Don't leave me in the dark;
Tell me if you feel it,
Feel a little spark;
A spark that if we feed it,
Could turn into a flame;
Burn away the pretense,
Laying bare our shame;
Burn away the pretense,
Laying bare our shame,
Oh who the hell am I kidding,
I don't have an ounce of shame.
