(Chorus) Why this hesitation, love? Why so shy when I’m with you? When I know your love is true, Why does my heart tremble too? Why this hesitation, love? Tell me, why this hesitation? (Verse 1) I tried to reason with my heart, It smiled and whispered back to me: “Foolish one, don’t call it fear, It’s just love’s veil you see.” Could I ever fear you, love? No, my darling, never you. Why be frightened of your own, When their love is pure and true? (Chorus) Why this hesitation, love? Why so shy when I’m with you? When I know your love is true, Why does my heart tremble too? (Verse 2) Sometimes worry fills my heart, Sometimes fear comes passing through; Then I see your honest soul, And it disappears from view. Are you some enchantress, love? Tell me, what spell do you weave? With a single glance, my darling, Every heartbeat you can read. (Verse 3) When your lips are kissing mine, You bring heaven close to me; Hold me near for just a moment, And the whole world ceases to be. You’re a living, breathing wonder, You are beauty, you are love; Fairer than the fairest angel, You’re my spring, my stars above. (Verse 4) This old laziness and pride, Both play tricks upon my mind; Making countless little reasons To leave you far behind. But what praise could I give you? You know me before I speak; With a single loving glance, dear, You bring me back to where I need. (Final Chorus) You alone are my soul, love, Without you, I’m nothing here; I would give myself completely, No one else could be so dear. You alone are my soul, love, You’re the dream my heart desires; Heart is yours and soul is yours, You’re the flame that lights my fire. Why this hesitation, love? Why should I be shy with you? When my heart and soul are yours, And my life belongs to you?
