Words are sometimes funny, they can change the way you feel
I've seen them break a heart, save a soul, make a grown man kneel
Now, I don't want to sound like I'm a fumblin' fool
But I can't find the right ones to tell you the truth

I could tell you that I need you, I could tell you that I care
Or that my heart broke down and told me, where we go from here
No way to tell you what I'm feelin' in a way you've never heard
So I just say, I love you, for lack of better words

Let me try another way to explain it more or less
To say, my heart is only yours, is only close at best
There's feelin's deep inside me, no words could ever touch
So no matter what I try to say, it's just not enough

I could tell you that I need you, I could tell you that I care
Or that my heart broke down and told me, where we go from here
No way to tell you what I'm feelin' in a way you've never heard
So I'll just say, I love you, for lack of better words

I can say, we'll stay together and you'll always hold my heart
Make a promise on forever but that's just a start
There's no way to tell you what I'm feelin' in a way you've never heard
So I just say, I love you, for lack of better words, for lack of better words
