I say I don't care
But it makes me crazy
When you're not there
I say I don't need you next to me


I say I don't need your touch
I say you don't mean that much
I say this love don't mean a thing


What I really wanna say is you stay on my mind
And I die every time
That you're not around me
What I really wanna show you is what's in my heart
But I stop when I start
Keep it locked inside me
What I really wanna do is just scream it out loud
Get the message through
What I really wanna say is I love you



I say I could live without you
But my mind's all tied up In thoughts about you
I say I won't let you get to me (yeah, yeah)


But every time I'm with you
I get so caught up in you
I say this love ain't what I need


What I really wanna say is you stay on my mind
And I die every time
That you're not around me
What I really wanna show you is what's in my heart
But I stop when I start
Keep it locked inside me
What I really wanna do is just scream it out loud
Get the message through
What I really wanna say is I love you


Why can't I say what I'm thinking
Why must I hide what I'm feeling I tell you I don't
care at all


What I really wanna say is you stay on my mind
And I die every time
That you're not around me
What I really wanna show you is what's in my heart
But I stop when I start Keep it locked inside me
What I really wanna do is just scream it out loud
Get the message through
What I really wanna say is I love you
