Lyrics
I can't say Words that seldom fail me stay away Tongue tied, I struggle to tell you, but clarity seems to escape me What's in store when someone feeling so much, says no more? Why should you wring the truth from me? I love you. I just can't say anymore How many times have I made a fool of myself, a simple fool with nothing to say? How am I ever to win you for myself? A lonely fool is just what I'll stay I can't say Words that seldom fail me stay away Tongue tied, I struggle to tell you, but clarity seems to escape me
