He who hesitates
When it comes to love
He will never know
The wonder of it all.
A kiss -- a sigh,
You'll never know
If you don't try.
He who hesitates
When her eyes say yes,
Just how much you've missed
You will never guess.
Your chance
Goes by
And it's too late
To wonder why.
Dreams cannot replace
The wonder of her smile.
The warmth of her embrace,
Don't let it
Escape you.
When you fall in love
And you feel the glow,
Take her in your arms
Never let her go.
Don't be
The one
To hesitate with love.
~interlude~
A kiss -- a smile
You'll never know
If you don't try.
When you fall in love
And you feel the glow,
Take her in your arms
Never let her go.
Don't be
The one
To hesitate...
Don't be
The one
Who hesitates...
Don't be
The one
Who hesitates...
With love.
