Words are somtimes funny,
they can change the way you feel
I've seen them break a heart, save a soul,
make a grown man kneel
Now I don't want to sound like I'm a fumblin fool,
but I can't find the right ones to tell you the truth

(Chorus)
I can tell you that I need you
I can tell you that I care,
or that my heart broke down and told me,
where we go from here
No way to tell you what I'm feeling,
in a way you've never heard
So I just say I love you, for lack of better words

Let me try another way to explain it more or less
to say my heart is only yours, is only close at best
There's feelings deep inside me, no words could ever touch
So no matter what I try to say it's just not enough

(Chorus)
I can tell you that I need you
I can tell you that I care
or that my heart broke down and told me,
where we go from here
No way to tell you what I'm feeling,
in a way you've never heard
So I just say I love you, for lack of better words

I can say we'll stay together,
and you'll always hold my heart
make a promise on forever, but that's just a start
There's no way to tell you what I'm feeling,
in a way you've never heard
So I just say I love you, for lack of better words

For lack of better words
