lyrics

I don’t think you heard me say that I love you
Cuz you didn’t even turn around
And now I don’t think that I got much of anything
Much of anything going on

So head out to that bright light city
And have some fun running around
I’ll be waiting here just where you left me
Trying to say these words out loud

I wanted to tell you that I really love you
And if you were here I’d tell you now
Maybe next time I’ll get it just right
Maybe next time I’ll make you proud

I don’t think you heard me say that I love you
Cuz you didn’t even turn around
And now I don’t think that I’ve got much of anything
Much of anything going, going on

Hey, babe, I’m sorry for this bad communicating
I’m sorry that I let you down, guess I’m not much one for talking
I just want you and I just want you around
I want you around, I want you around

So head out to that bright light city
And have some fun running around
I’ll be waiting here just where you left me
Trying to say these words out loud – I love you
Trying to say these words out loud – I love you
Trying to say these words out loud – I love you
Trying to say these words out loud – I love you

So head on out to that bright light city
And have some fun running around
I’ll be waiting here just where you left me
Trying to say these words out loud – I love you
Trying to say these words out loud – I love you
Trying to say these words out loud – I love you
Trying to say these words out loud – I love you

I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you
