I love you, I love you, I love you, yes I do

But the words won't come & I don't know what to say

I should tell you, I love you, I do

My words should explain, but my words won't come

I shouldn't hide my love deep inside

My words should explain, but my words won't come

I should tell you just how I feel, & I keep tryin'

But something holds me back when I try to tell you

CHORUS:

I love you, I love you, I love you, yes I do

I love you, I love you, I love you, yes I do

But the words won't come & I don't know what to say

If I can find the words in my mind

The words could explain, but the words won't come

If you can see what you mean to me

My words should explain, but my words won't come

& oh how hard I try to tell you I love you

But something holds me back when I try to tell you

(chorus)

(instrumental)

& I don't know what to say

& oh how hard I try to tell you I love you

But something holds me back when I try to tell you

(chorus x2; 2nd time, minus last line)
