It's never  
"I don't love you"  
  
And it's never  
"I don't care"  
  
It's always  
"I crave you"  
"I need you"  
"I want you"  
  
Forever  
"Please, baby"  
"C'mon, baby"  
"Why not, baby?"  
  
I'd do so much more for me and you  
I've done so much for me and you  
I'm just asking that you do  
This one thing for us, too  
  
And it's hard,  
But I will dare  
  
And it's hard,  
Much more than "maybe"  
  
But, step out of comfort, baby  
We'll have much more than "maybe"  
Love's far deeper than just caring  
And those close to me are daring  
  
I'm just asking that you do  
This next thing for me and you  
  
I can't keep pulling you along  
Can't keep up this lonely song  
But if you force this solitaire  
Please release me from this snare  
  
And I'll step out of comfort, baby  
We'll have so much less than "maybe"  
Love's so much more than wanting  
So much more than two souls' haunting
