Lyrics
I don’t know the words,
I don’t have the verse,
Oh but if I did, I’d lay it on you,
Wouldn’t hesitate, I'd see it right through.
The walls hung an empty frame,
No-one knows it’s name,
But if it held some picture of the sun when day is through,
Its radiant amber glow would trace it back to you.
And your beauty that I would fall for,
your beauty that I would die for...
But what use are words and pretty imagery,
When you are standing next to me,
They all fall flat and wash away,
Don’t know what to say.
Thoughts I can’t express,
Leave me in a mess,
Tied my tongue, I’m feeling numb,
Can’t risk the damage that could be done…
By calling out you name,
In a different way,
Why do I feel shame in what I’ve done,
For wishing you’re the only one.
And your beauty that I would fall for,
your beauty that I would die for...
But what use are words and pretty imagery,
When you are standing next to me,
They all fall flat and wash away,
Don’t know what to say.
Don’t know what to say,
Don’t know what to say.
