Can I

Can I trust you?
Does your smile hide lies?
Can I jump in
And close my eyes?
Can you tell me that you'll be here
For all the little things?
Can I lay here
In your arms?

Can I love you?
Would it be alright?
Can I wait here
When you say goodbye?
Cause I've been hurt
Can I try
To just believe
You'll never let me go?

Say you need me
By your side
And I will hold your hand
Till the end of time
Say you'll listen
When we fight
That you won't shut me out
And walk away
Won't you tell me that you'll stay here?
So we can talk it out
Then you'll smile at me
And hold me tight

Can I love you?
Would it be alright?
Can I wait here
When you say goodbye?
Cause I've been hurt
Oh can I try to just believe
You'll never let me go?

Cause I'm so through with all the pain
And the lonliness it brings
Cause every time it's all the same
And I'm ready to give in

So can I love you?
Would it be alright?
Can I wait here
When you say goodbye?
Cause I've been hurt
Oh can I try
To just believe
You'll never let me go?
