I'd kiss you if I dare
I want to, but I'm scared
I should have known
I've been alone too long

My lips are much too still
My arms have lost their skill
My charm has flown
I've been alone too long

It's been years since I have whispered
A foolish love word
And I'd be afraid, I'd sing you a faded song

But if you smile and then
Say "darling, try again"
I'll know you've known
I've been alone too long

But if you smile and then
Say "darling, try again"
I'll know you've known
I've been alone too long
