I see you everyday
But you just walk on by
Its like fireworks explode inside
Just some simple words that I want to say
When I get close I hesitate
Time and time I search to find
That opening cliche

[Chorus]
If you could only read my mind
You'd see that I am struggling
Line by line
I wrote it down a million times
But I just can't seem to get it right

Why does my confidence
Play tricks on me
It shuts me up so I can't speak
Out of necessity I have to prove
That my telepathy
Can get through to you
Why
Does it have to be that the words get in the way

[Chorus]

If you only knew
That I wrote it all for you

If you could read my mind
You'd see that I am struggling
Line by line
I wrote it down a million times
But I just can't seem to get it right
[Repeat: x 2]

No I just can't seem to get it right...
