Took her hand in my hand as we walked out the door,
Hoped nobody would see us as we left that floor.
Took my chances in letter of the latter

I thought maybe I could tell her everything that I felt:
How I played all the cards in the hands I was dealt.
Tell it all like it was in a letter

I should tell her that I love her, I need her tonight
That the stars are only second to her beautiful eyes
I want her all for my own;
I should tell her

Take a minute for the moment, I can barely begin.
It would seem a perfect ending if we only could win.
I take my chances and maybe make it better
Please find my eyes,
I can't find the words to explain
All the things I need said for me to be sane.
Tell it all like it was in a letter.

I should tell her that I love her, I need her tonight
That the stars are only second to her beautiful eyes
I want her all for my own;
I should tell her,
But I'm...

I'm not so sure what we should be;
I'm not sure it should be left up to me.
I've been buried in these blankets for far too long
Pick it all up, uncover what went wrong
But who's to say what I can't say?
We've all got something that won't go away.
It's not that I don't love you, I do love you.
I should tell you,
But I can't.

I should tell her that I love her, I need her tonight
That the stars are only second to her beautiful eyes
I want her all for my own.
I want her all alone
I should tell her that my mornings are the best when I wake
And see an angel with a smile gracefully on her face
I want her all for my own
I should tell her.

Take a minute for the moment, I'm falling apart,
Been falling from the start.
Then tell it all like it was in a letter.
