If I could speak
four syllables
I'd tell a girl that
I love her so
and I'd tell her
she's so lovable
if I could speak

yeah if I could talk
oh if I could see
I'd tell her that
she's so heavenly
and I'd tell her
she's alone like me
if I could talk

but I can't say yes
and I can't say no
and I can't confess
what we already know

what a beautiful life
for me and you
if I could only speak
so true

I remember
the moment
of finding her eyes
so long dreaming
about them
so long being denied
and then finally
I found them
with her pure light
inside
all those years lived
without them
there they were
bright and wide
staring back from
a picture
where my love
doth reside
