[Verse 1]

G D

I...I stand on my own

And wonder if you've ever been alone

With all the world around you

G D

Say the word, I'd be there

And like a fool, I'd go anywhere

D A

Just like the day I found you

[Chorus]

Tell me what you see

Tell me you believe in my love

[Verse 2]

G D

I don't understand what to say

You take my breath and then you walk away

Your life goes on without me

G D

And you can look right at me

But in your eyes it's a mystery

D A

What do you feel about me

[Chorus]

Tell me if it's real

Tell me what you feel in my love

Tell me what you see

Tell me you believe in my love

Tell me what to give

Tell me I can live for your love

Tell me not to leave

Tell me to believe in your love

[Verse 3]

G D

I don't really know what to say

I don't know how, but I could learn to pray

If prayin' makes you hear me

G D

I could stay on my own

And wonder if I would've ever known

D A

But I just want you near me
