Nov 2011
you found me shattered on the floor
glued me together,swum me back to shore
don't think you know that, do you?
I'm good at hiding things from view
but someday when we're old and gray
I'll tell you, because then I'll know how to say
I love you
right now the words get stuck in my throat
like there's wool from an old winter coat
just can't seem to say the words to you
and I hope you feel the same way I do
I just..I just can't tell
it's like a magic spell
over me
holding in my feelings
hope you understand from my eyes
from my sweet and sad lullabies
the words I cannot say

but someday when we're old and gray
I'll tell you I love you
the spell will be gone
I will move on and tell you
the words I've known for years
the ones held back by tears
the words I cannot say
