OH LET ME TELL YOU THAT I LOVE YOU

Oh let me tell you that I love you.
Do not make me hold my words.
My heart speaks them to you
Even when my lips are silent.

Oh let me tell you that I want you
Do not keep me far from you
My mind travels many miles
To join with yours in sweet conversations.

Oh let me tell you that I need you
More desparately than I could imagine
You make me feel the need
To touch you in secret places
Known only to a lover.

O let me tell you that you have opened me
To a love that I thought
Would never be again.
I am old
But with you
My youth returns
That I may please you
Forever.
