Was it that I thought it?
Or was it that it was?
Cement it to my conscience
Remind me of your love

Constantly assure me
One moment to the next
That your feelings haven’t faded
Don’t make me have to guess

I love you with such passion
But doubt and fear slip in
Even when you’re next to me
My hand within your hand

Even when you kiss me
I think your lips misguide
I’m sure that if you loved me
These thoughts would not arise

I could not bear your leaving
No one could love you more
I’ve seen you look at others
So I’m never fully sure

I hear you say you love me
You lend me your support
You answer all my questions
But right now I need more

Please, please hold me tightly
Say we’re meant to be
That our future is together
Promise that to me

Then I’ll feel secure enough
Accept your love as fact
That will cure my neediness
And my stranglehold relax.
