day after day 
time pass away 
and I just can't get you off my mind 
nobody knows 
I hide it inside 
I keep on searching but i can't find 

the courage to show 
to letting you know 
I've never felt so much love before 
and once again I'm thinkin' about 
takin' the easy way out 

but if I let you go 
I will never know 
what my life would be 
holding you close to me 
will I ever see 
you smiling back at me 
oh yeah 
how will I know 
if I let you go 

night after night 
I hear myself say 
why can't this feeling just fade away 
there's no one like you 
you speak to my heart 
it's such a shame 
we're worlds apart 

I'm too shy to ask 
I'm too proud to lose 
but sooner or later I've gotta choose 
and once again 
I'm thinkin' about 
taking the easy way out 

but if I let you go 
I will never know 
what my life would be 
holding you close to me 
will I ever see 
you smiling back at me 
oh yeah 
how will I know 
if I let you go 

if I let you go, oh baby 

oooh 

once again I'm thinkin' about 
takin' the easy way out 

but if I let you go 
I will never know 
what my life would be 
holding you close to me (close to me) 
will I ever see 
you smiling back at me 
oh yeah 
how will I know 
if I let you go 

but if I let you go 
I will never know 
(oh baby)

will I ever see 
you smiling back at me 
oh yeah 
How will I know 
(how will i know) 
if I let you go
