Hard Simplicity

I love you.
Three little words.
How much simpler could it get?
But every time you look at me
I open my mouth to tell you
and no sound comes out.

I'm not good with spoken words,
the speech is written on my heart,
but the words, they just won't sound.
If only you could see them
when they show through my eyes.
Those three simple words:
I love you.

Each and every time
that I see you with her,
my heart feels like it's gonna burst.
I know that I could love you so much more,
I want to tell you, but I cherish the silence
rather than lose you my dear friend.

I'm not good with spoken words,
the speech is written on my heart,
but the words, they just won't sound.
If only you could see them
when they show through my eyes.
Those three simple words:
I love you.

Should I throw my caution to the wind?
I want to scream your name and my love for you
out to the whole wide world!
I will press my lips to yours
and tell you just how much you mean to me!

I'm not good with spoken words,
but now I don't really care,
I'm sayin them any way!
You can see them in my eyes
and now they're on my lips as well:
I love you.
