How do I say
How do I say I’m sorry for your pain? Do I show my ignorance
and moan again
Do I just utter the syllables and form the word, in time
that refrain starts to sound absurd
Or do I wrap my life around the wounds, and say through my actions,
you’re the best part of my day
How do I say I would be happy to give, all I have and all I
am just to be able to live
With you. I see tomorrow’s full of hope, life is full of pitfalls
we can hop, together we can cope
Those days at the bottom, picturing that dream, ride the
explosion of emotion wipe the steam
How do I say I love you and will beyond measure? Do I try to
paint a picture of all that I treasure?
Do I tell you I’d forsake it all as long as I could stand, beside
you in front of the world and take your hand?
Or do I show you by my never-ending deeds, by perpetually trying
to fulfill every one of your needs
How do I say I love you, well I only know one way, kiss you goodnight,
and kiss you to start every day
That’s how
