Lyrics
SHARON
Sharon, you know at times I fail
To make you see how much I, I really care
And maybe, it's often much too hard to tell
That I live my life around you, I need you there
CHORUS:
And I know if you could see
All the love inside of me
We would live eternally as a man and wife were meant to be
And I know as I sing this song
It won't show the love near as strong
As it is down deep, I don't mean to keep it inside of me
And Sharon, for all the times I seemed dismayed
I wish you could understand that I'm afraid
Of failing, it's really hard for me to say
That I'll never live up to the promises made
(Repeat Chorus)
Even though I sometimes run away
You've got to understand you're the only one I've known this way
You're still the love I dream of everyday
And though I sometimes say I just can't take it
I know each day we're goin' to make it
Our love is much too strong to break it anyway
