Let me take you to the waterfront The mist will wash away those tears And if you say it's OK, I'll hold your hand til this clears Do I take it she's hurt you again This time more painful than before? I wish I had the nerve to tell her You don't want no more. Chorus: 'Cause boy I love you More than you'll ever know if the truth be said These feelings that I'm holding back Make me more than just a friend But I can never tell the truth 'Cause I don't want to lose your trust I know that if yo went away My heart would turn to dust. The walls between us were not made to keep The sound of crying to themselves And it's another night of wasted dreams you'll defend I came so close to telling you today Boy you just take those dreams and run But my selfish heart wouldn't say those words Was that so wrong? Chorus: Your kitchen light shines onto my back yard Your shadow paces back and forth I sit here in the darkness With my strange collection of thoughts But wait a moment, am I in a dream? Is that the sound of your back door? And with a flickering shadow of conscience our eyes hold. Chorus: Tonight maybe I'll tell the truth Please don't let me lose your trust Tonight I'll not send you away Tonight is just for us.
