Kurt Nilsen - Tearing Me Up Inside Lyrics

I've been walking in circles
Watching you everyday
I've been taking every care
Not to scare you away
I've made you my friend
You've put your trust in me
I'm a shoulder t cry on
Whenever you're in need

I've been reading your ways
Looking for a sign
Is there any chance at all
That I can make you mine
Well I've come this far
but there's a longer way to go
My chances look slim
But soon I will know

[Chorus]
It's tearing me up inside
Holding back for you
Feelings are hard to hide
They're 'bout to slip right through
It's tearing me up inside
I don't know what to do
I know I'll lose this fight
How can I let you know

I've been trying lately
To show you a secret way
I reached out to touch you gently
Stricken by your grace
I just hope that you see
And help me brake this pain
If I lose you by telling
It's all been in vain

[Chorus]

There was a time before when I thought I was brave
But now I'm here with you I shiver and I shake
I fight the words of love and it all comes crashing down
I close my eyes
I let them go
I have to let you know

[Chorus]

Oh
It's tearing me up inside
I don't know what to do
I know I'll lose this fight
How can I let you know ohohoh
