Strangled in fear
Afraid to hold him near
Drowning in sorrow
Like I'll do tomorrow

Afraid to feel like this again
Afraid to lose a man
So important in my life
One day I could be his wife

Drowning in tears now
I wouldn't know how
To make them go away
To make this man stay

If I can not stop my pain
My effort could be in vain
To hold this man near
To once be free of pain and fear

In confusion I'm drowning
Don't want to wake up in the morning
Too afraid to hear you say
From now on we'll go a seperate way

Trying to hold on
To my illusion
You will never be gone
To wait and feel my affection

Unfortunately it's only an illusion
I can not live with my confusion
I could never expect you to
For my love for you is so true

I can only ask
From you to fulfill
A very difficult task
To be the man
Who will wait for me
To have the will
To wait for me to be
The girl to say to you
"I do"
