Actually I Have a Quite Extensive Vocabulary

There are some things that I should say to you But I just can’t find the words They keep running from tongue And avoiding all my thoughts And I’ve got to find a way, to say… you are… Well you are… The words that I can’t find And the feelings I don’t know But I’ve got to find a way… to show… That I can never let you go Until I find the words, to say… You are... Well you are…… You are the rain that hits my roof And sings me back to sleep You are my strength to rise again When I’ve fallen to my knees You are the warmth that comforts me When the cold has made me weak And still these words they don’t explain All the things you are… well you are…. So I try again to say these things That I should say to you To track down the words and bring them to their knees And let them flow across my lips So you can finally see, to me… you are… Well you are… The words that I can’t find And the feelings I can’t show But I’ve got to find a way… to show… That I can never let you go Until I find the words, to say… You are... Well you are…… You are the rain that hits my roof And sings me back to sleep You are my strength to rise again When I’ve fallen to my knees You are the warmth that comforts me When the cold has made me weak And still these words they don’t explain All the things you are… well you are….
