Lyrics
What if I should say I love you
Expressing the contemplation of confessing love.
Would you spend some time?
Asking if the person would allocate time in response to the expression of love.
I'll tell you what I'm thinking of you
Conveying thoughts of affection towards the person.
But if I do, do you have to know why?
Questioning the necessity of knowing the reason if love is confessed.
When I look at you,
Observing the person and preparing to reveal emotions.
Are you wondering who
Pondering if the person is curious about the speaker's identity.
I am to do
Wondering about the appropriateness of expressing such feelings.
Such a thing to you.
Expressing uncertainty about conveying love to the person.
I bet you know that you're breaking
Acknowledging the emotional impact on the speaker.
My heart.
Acknowledging the person's awareness of causing heartbreak.
I bet you know, my heart.
Reiterating the emotional impact on the speaker's heart.
What if I should say I love you
Repeating the contemplation of confessing love.
Baby, would you steal away my heart
Asking if expressing love would deeply affect the person.
And could the moment last for always
Questioning the potential longevity of the emotional moment.
And ever, or should we even start.
Raising the question of whether to initiate a romantic connection.
When you look at me,
Highlighting the impact of the person's gaze on the speaker.
All the world can see
Noting that the world can perceive the speaker's sudden desire for love.
I suddenly
Expressing the sudden emergence of a desire for reciprocated love.
Want your love for me.
Stating the speaker's wish for the person's love.
I bet you know that you're breakin'
Reiterating the impact of the person's actions on the speaker's emotions.
My heart.
Reiterating the person's awareness of causing heartbreak.
I bet you know, my heart.
Emphasizing the impact on the speaker's heart.
Maybe someday I would be gone
Contemplating a potential future separation.
Then you'd be alone
Highlighting the person's solitude in the absence of the speaker.
Wondering what's wrong
Speculating about the person's confusion and concern in the absence of the speaker.
How could it begin and then be gone.
Reflecting on the ephemeral nature of the potential romantic connection.
