Today, again you ask me if I love you
I just laugh and ask, “that question again?”
Today, again you cry and say I’m mean
Its always the same question- same answer

You ask me if its that hard to say those words
And why its so hard if everyone else says it
Do I have to say it for you to know?
Just like any other day, I love you

Hey, hold on- I only see you
Even though I pretend not to, I take notice
Hey, I’m the same, just as always
You’re a fool for hanging on mere words

Why wouldn’t I know the words of I love you
They’re tickling my throat
Why wouldn’t I be able to say words at the tip of my tongue
And if I say it all the time, it won’t be special anymore

Is it that important?
Is my heart alone not enough?
I really don’t know
What’s so important about everyone else doing it
What’s so important about what others say baby

Hey, hold on- I only see you
Even though I pretend not to, I take notice
Hey, I’m the same, just as always
You’re a fool for hanging on mere words

Because you’re dating such a stony guy
You’re having a hard time- because of me
But I’ll promise you one thing
I will be good to you- more than anyone else

Hey, hold on- I only see you
Even though I pretend not to, I take notice
Hey, I’m the same, just as always
You’re a fool for hanging on mere words

I’m sorry to you- who’s always smiling
I feel like I am tying you up in the name of love
Even a small whisper will feel light
I won’t ever make you sad
I will try to change it to words that I say occasionally
Without changing, I’ll be by your side
And I’ll treat you even better- because I know you well
