If I Said…”

If I said “I Love You”,
would you count the stars with me?
If I said “I need you”, 
would you walk here next to me…

And if my heart were breaking,
would you mend it back again…
And when my hands are lonely,
will you let me touch your skin…

Will you tell me that you love me,
and never take it back…
for if you left here with your love, 
the skies would all turn black…

I will say “I Love You”,
and count the stars tonight…
and you will say “I need you”,
and I will hold you tight…

We could count the stars from here all night,
but never would there be…
more stars above in heaven,
than the love you have for me…


Ron Walker May 1998
