In the quiet of a Sunday mornin' dew upon the grass
Saw you at the diner 'neath the sign of neon glass
Tried to find the courage spent too long in fear
Now I'm standin' by your doorstep hopin' you can hear

Spent my days in shadows workin' on the farm
Nights spent out in wonder 'bout the touch of your warm arm
Letters in my pocket words I could not share
Tonight I'll speak them plainly leave my heart laid bare

Oh darlin' can you see the truth within my eyes?
Years I've watched and waited knowin' you're the prize
Every shy glance every whispered prayer
It all comes down to this a heart completely bare

Your laugh like music dancin' on the wind
Times we shared in silence now they must begin
Standing in your doorway moonlight in your hair
Hoping that you'll answer to a heart laid bare

Bridges that were burned scars along the way
But with you I see the sunrise startin' every day
Life ain't been too gentle but you make it right
So I'm here confessin' on this starry night

If your heart's been troubled know you're not alone
Together we can wander down this road unknown
Hand in hand we're stronger love beyond compare
So take this humble offer of a heart laid bare
