Copyright © 2000, Battunes Music Words and music by Dean Batstone You know how much I want you, but girl, I’m just too proud I can’t find the words to tell you I love you, right out loud Close your eyes now darling; let’s not talk of this tonight We’ve been over this so many times, one more time won’t make it right It don’t make me a bad man, in my own way I’m tryin’ If I broke any laws by not speaking my heart I’m ready to do my time But if loving you was all I did, let the punishment suit the crime Sentence me to eternity with your arms in mine Well, I never bought you fancy clothes, or diamond rings or pearls But I held you all those crazy nights you were running from this world I don’t look twice at anyone when you’re here by my side I carry my heart on my sleeve and my love here in my eyes With your arms in mine the right words will come With your arms in mine I feel so strong I guess I was wrong for waiting so long to say “I love you”
