Now if I said it real pretty in a pretty rhyme Does your mind get cloudy that's a dirty crime Does it do things any good to tell you That I'm standing here because- I love you You say the voice is soothing got those hypnotic eyes But man I wouldn't want to hand you any alibis You can blame it all on what you can But do you see just where I am- I love you I had a flash, I saw you crying in the night I said a prayer, I saw you walking in the light And you were saying how it all once was And how your life has changed because- He loves you And then you turned and told someone Who wouldn't believe you when you said- I love you Now if I find it rough going in expressing myself And between the lines it's coming from somebody else Don't you leave it altogether Put this upon the shelf- I said I love you
