WHAT IF
“WHAT IF”
By Skylark
“What if I come close to you, would you mind?
Would you spare me even just the shortest moment of your time
To take a walk with me along the shore and have a little talk
Under the pale moonlight, in the silence of the night.”
“I may not know what’s inside you heart but I want you to know what’s inside my heart.”
“What if I say “I love you so”, would I be hearing the same words from you
And if you say it isn’t so, would I be strong enough to let my feelings go?”
