Lyrics

How Much I Really Care

I'm writing this so you can see
Just how much you mean to me
Your love fills up my heart so full
And finding words is hard to do
But I'll find a way somewhere
To tell you how much I really care

I was afraid to tell you so
Didn't know which way to go
Then I decided here today
I couldn't let it slip away
So I'll gather all my courage there
And tell you how much I really care

I know it sounds a little strange
But my feelings never seem to change
I hope these words don't make you run
'Cause loving you has just begun

And if you want, I'll walk away
But if you need me, I can stay
I hope these words don't scare you dear
I'm only trying to make it clear

You're the one I'm hoping for
And maybe someday we'll be more
Until then, I'll always share
Just how much I really care

If I could hold you in my arms
I'd keep you safe from all life's storms
We'd laugh together through the years
And help each other through our fears
And every day I'd still declare
Just how much I really care

I love you, that's the honest truth
But I'd never ask too much of you
And if friendship is where we begin
I'd be grateful just to let you in

Because I'd never cause you pain
Or ask for something I can't gain
And if you ever need me there
That should show how much I really care

I know it sounds a little strange
But my feelings never seem to change
I hope these words don't make you run
'Cause loving you has just begun

You're the one I'm hoping for
And maybe someday we'll be more
Until then, I'll always share
Just how much I really care

So if you're wondering how I feel
These simple words are very real
I've searched for words beyond compare
To tell you how much I really care
How much I really care.
