Lyrics

Well, I know it's kinda late.

I hope I didn't wake you.

But what I gotta say can't wait,

I know you'd understand.


Every time I tried to tell you,

The words just came out wrong,

So I'll have to say I love you in a song.


Yeah, I know it's kinda strange.

Every time I'm near you,

I just run out of things to say.

I know you'd understand.


Every time I tried to tell you,

The words just came out wrong,

So I'll have to say I love you in a song.


Every time the time was right,

All the words just came out wrong,

So I'll have to say I love you in a song


Yeah, I know it's kinda late.

Hope I didn't wake you,

But there's something I just gotta say.

Know you'd understand.


Every time I tried to tell you,

The words just came out wrong

So I'll have to say I love you in a song.
