I try so many ways to say how my heart beats for you
 I say I'm always thinking about you
 There's no way I'd want to face this life without you
 And even though these words come from deep inside me
 There's so much more I don't have the words to say

 'Cause what I really want to say
 Is what the sun would say to the sky
 For giving it a place to come alive
 But my words get in the way
 Of what I really want to say
 Oh, what I really want to say

 I know that sometimes my words can be as hard as stone
 And sometimes my words have left you feeling so alone
 So please forgive me and hear the words I'm saying now
 I will spend my whole life looking for a way somehow
 To let you know just how precious you are to me
 I'll use the best words I know but I still won't say it all

 It's like a tale too great to be told
 It's something that my heart can only show
 I'm gonna take my whole life
 Just to let you know
 What I really want to say
 Oh, what I really want to say to you
 What I really want to say
 Oh, what I really want to say
