But I Don't Know What To Say

I want to make you teary-eyed; I want to rend your heart.
I want to show you happy dreams, then tear them all apart. 

I want to re-instill you with a purpose and a plan. 
I want to lift you from the depths, and I'll do what I can ...

There's only one small problem, though I fear it's here to stay:
I want to share myself with you, but I don't know what to say.
