You make me smile
You make me say
You make me feel good every day
You bring me up
When I’ve been down
This only happens when you’re around

And I can’t go on this way
Feel it stronger every day
But being too shy to say
That I really love you

I wanna fly
Away with you
Until there’s nothing more for us to do

I wanna be
More than a friend
Until the end of an endless end

And I can’t go on this way
Feel it stronger every day
But being too shy to say
That I really love you

And I can’t go on this way
Feel it stronger every day
But being too shy to say
That I really love you
I do
