Can You Feel The Love Tonight

Lion King Soundtrack


Can you feel the love tonight?
The peace the evening brings
The world, for once, in perfect harmony
With all its living things

So many things to tell her
But how to make her see
The truth about my past? Impossible!
She'd turn away from me

He's holding back, he's hiding
But what, I can't decide
Why won't he be the king I know he is
The king I see inside?

Chorus:
Can you feel the love tonight?
The peace the evening brings
The world, for once, in perfect harmony
With all its living things

Can you feel the love tonight?
You needn't look too far
Stealing through the night's uncertainties
Love is where they are

The movie version, not Elton John's. Seen from both Mulder and Scully's point of view. He is afraid to open up to her, to tell her about his demons for fear of her turning away. But she can tell that he is hiding his feelings behind a facade, wanting him to be himself, to trust her with his emotions. The love between them is palpable, though they may not realize it, they don't have to search for love, it's right in front of them.
