How Many Times ?
how many times must I tell you that I am in love with you ?
how many times must I tell you how much I care ?
how many words will it take to convince you of how I feel ?
and that but for the light in your eyes
the moon and the sun would not rise ?
how many words will it take to erase all uncertainty ?
how many words will it take to remove all doubt ?
regarding my feelings for you, they're deep and eternally true
and won't rest till they know they're the thing you're most sure about
how many times must I say I am deeply in love with you
till it's believed and is silently understood ?
what must I do to convey in a way that you'll comprehend
that my life is complete when you're there
just like living and breathing in air ?
what must I do in myself to describe what is absolute ?
how can I get you accepting of what is true ?
until and unless you have heard the truthfulness in every word
I'll repeat and repeat and repeat them until you do
if you want me to say in an undisguised way
I will love you my whole life through
this is my affirmation, and my love declaration
I will say it again and again to you
how many times must I tell you that you are the one for me ?
how many times till the moment that you can see ?
until any doubting has died, I'll say it until you decide
till you know in your heart you are ever a part of me
