I Confess

If you love me
Why don’t you tell me?
Why do you keep it?
All to yourself

If you want me
Why don’t you show me?
How can you know me?
With somebody else

I confess
I confess
I confess

(That) I’ve had to whisper
And I’ve had to listen
And I’ve had to keep it
Secret and cool

(While) You get to run it
You get to hide it
You get to watch me
Playing the fool

I confess
I confess
I confess

I want to know you
I want to stop this hiding
I want it out in the open
I need you to need me
I want to walk in the light

I’ve got to be more than
Someone to play with
Someone who loves you
From inside a song

If you want me
I want you to show me
If you can’t show me
Then baby I’m gone

I confess
I confess
I confess
