Lyrics (unofficial)

[rev. Nov. 21, 2018]

"Come my dear sit here and tell me
What it is that troubles you
If you can confide in me
Then we'll see what we can do"

Be still my heart
See how she suffers
"Lady take this moment
For there may not be another"

The comfort of friendship
Has turned into something not planned
How can I tell her
I crave the mere touch of her hand

Ahh-ah, the words left unsaid
Ahh-ah, go 'round in their heads
Ahh-ah, will shyness and shame
Ahh-ah, defeat love again

"How kind of you sir to ask me
What it is that's on my mind
I assure you it is nothing
But tiredness from this work of mine"

Be still my heart
His eyes are not for you
"Pleasant though it is to chatter
I have duties to resume"

These two years I've known him
His dear heart I've never addressed
Yet all that I crave
Is to minister to his happiness

Ahh-ah, the words left unsaid
Ahh-ah, go 'round in their heads
Ahh-ah, will shyness and shame
Ahh-ah, defeat love again
