How Much Love

How can I tell you to put it all in words?
There is so much left to say
But the meaning slips away

How can I show you to see it through my eyes?
Don't deny that part of you that's been dying for it too
How do I know if I give you too much?
Will I scare you away?

How do I know when to leave you alone?
When to beg you to stay
I wanna know

Just how much love does it take to get to you
I stand here ready to break
Tell me, tell me
How much love does it take?

Moment to moment
I don't know where it stands
Will I end up like the rest?
Well, it's anybody's guess

Can I persuade you
So softly in a touch?
It is all a waste of time
Well, I'm only wasting mine

How do I know if I give you too much?
Will I scare you away?
How do I know when to leave you alone?
When to beg you to stay?
I wanna know

Just how much love does it take to get to you
I stand here ready to break
Tell me, tell me
How much love does it take?

How do I know when to leave you alone?
When to beg you to stay?
I wanna know

Just how much love does it take to get to you
I stand here ready to break
Tell me, tell me
How much love does it take?
