I know that you're not ready yet
Your love I won't pursue
But while you're making up your mind
My love will wait for you.
A love that's freely chosen
Is a love that will endure,
A love that is prepared to wait
Will end up more secure.
And if you should decide that love
is not for us to share
I hope that you will tell me so
And your true thoughts declare.
But if you sense that love describes
the feeling in your heart
Then share with me your deepest thoughts
so we're not long apart.
