[Verse 1] I’ve heard a thousand promises Whispered in the dark, Words can sound so empty They just don’t reach my heart. So if you tell me what you’re feeling When I look into your eyes and see, A language of your unspoken love That says what words could never mean. [Pre-Chorus] You can say the world is turning You can tell me love is true, But there’s something about your touch That makes me believe in you. [Chorus] If you tell me, I might forget Show me, I’ll understand Hold me like you mean it Let me feel it in your hands Don’t just tell me that you love me Let your heart become the proof So if you tell me, I’ll forget. Show me, I’ll understand. When your love is shown to me, I’ll never have to ask again.. [Verse 2] I don’t need a perfect story Or words trying to get you through that door, I just need you beside me Showing me you’re wanting more. When the world gets heavy on us And the easy days are gone, Stay with me through every silence I’ll know where I belong. [Pre-Chorus] Talk is cheap, deeds are true, More than promises ever made, It’s the way you reach for me When there’s nothing left to say. [Chorus] If you tell me, I might forget Show me, I’ll understand. Hold me like you mean it Let me feel it in your hands Don’t just tell me that you love me Let your heart become the proof So if you tell me, I’ll forget Show me, I’ll understand. When your love is shown to me I’ll never have to ask again. [Bridge] If you want forever Then please just don’t say words Walk with me through every storm Let your actions speak first. And when we’re old and looking back On every road we ran, I’ll remember every way you loved me More than every word you said. [Chorus] If you tell me, I might forget Show me, I’ll understand Kiss me when I’m hurting Reach for me and take my hand Don’t just tell me that you love me Let me feel it, let me know Cause if you tell me, I’ll forget, Show me, I’ll understand Because the love that you show Is the love I never will let go. [Outro] If you tell me, I might forget… Show me, I’ll forever understand. And if you love me like you say you do, I’ll feel it, when you hold my hand
