Your only try at love was through before it began So now you're frightened of the thought of losing again Would I be true to you; girl, if there's any doubt Just ask me anything your mind is wondering about [CHORUS:] Could I chase the bitter taste Left in your heart by someone who said goodbye Could I love? Give me love I'm down on my knees, beggin' you please, Could I? If I could get to you & prove the things that I say You wouldn't compare me to the pain you knew yesterday You've built a wall of ice I'm sure my lovin' will melt Please let me hold you, love, instead of asking yourself (repeat chorus & fade)
