The Hardest Words To Say

I'm thinking about you when I go to sleep at night
You're the angel that holds me in her arms
When the morning dawns your at the top of my day
I'm day dreaming about you everyday

I don't have the right words to express myself
and let you know just what I'm feeling inside
maybe I should just go ahead and be a fool
not let words of love be destroyed by pride

why are the words I love you
hard to say to you
Its as though I assume that you could
read my mind
when loving you is all that I could ever want
those three words they weigh heavy
on my mind

Another day is over 
perhaps I'll call you up
take you out to dinner and some wine
waiting for small talk to turn more serious
so I can tell you just what's on my mind

why do I get so shy
whenever you are near?
when I dream of holding you
what is it I fear?

won't somebody tell me 
why I cry at night
when I wake and you're not next to me
I guess I only have myself to blame
for not telling you
exactly what I mean

why are the words I love you
hard to say to you
Im hoping that my actions
say it all
when loving you is everything I dream about
I'll say those words
and finally risk it all

I love you....
ooo....ooo...ooo
be my darlin
I love you....
ooo....ooo...ooo
yes it's true
I love you
ooo...ooo...ooo
don't hide from my love
I love you
don't make me feel
