Tell Her In a Love Song

Tell her in a love song Vs 1 I see you pass me in the hallway I've never seen anyone like you I tell my friends, they say, "there's no way" "she's ever gonna look at you" Bridge 1 My pulse races...I'm finding it hard to breathe I must face it...she's way outta my league Chorus I'm sure it's love...that I'm feeling but I'm too scared, to give it a try I just don't know....how I can tell her I just can't take another day! This feeling is so strong! (so I'll) tell her in a love song vs 2 And so, I'll tell her in my love song Exactly what it is I feel I hope that...when she hears my love song That she'll feel the way that I feel Bridge 2 I'll let her know...what I'm feeling inside Then she will know...she's the reason I'm alive Chorus I'm sure it's love...that I'm feeling but I'm too scared, to give it a try I just don't know....how I can tell her I just can't take another day! This feeling is so strong! (so I'll) tell her in a love song vs 3 So I'll tell her, that she's amazing and that I'd love to dance, with her She'll prob'ly say that "I'm crazy" "but maybe there's a chance with her". Chorus I'm sure it's love...that I'm feeling but I'm too scared, to give it a try I just don't know....how I can tell her I just can't take another day! This feeling is so strong! (so I'll) tell her in a love song I see you ...pass me ...in the hallway I've never seen... anyone, like, you! Fade to zero John Derek Hamilton February 05, 2018

Oh I remember these youthful days of unrequited crushes and tender emotional angst.. your beautiful lyric conveys this turmultuous time with heartfelt rhythm and grace. I love this song, John and all that it represents.. the vulnerability.. the breathless anticipation.. the insecurities.. the want to express feelings.. the fear of rejection, all magically brought to life in your wondrous song. Warmest wishes my talented friend. ~Susan

All hail to the King of Lyrics! John, you never fail to deliver and captivate! Love this as I do all your works! I'm sure that quite a few of us can relate to this on some level. It wasn't until years later that I learned about guys who had a crush on me when we were in high school but didn't say a word. Some would have been interesting - others I'm glad they kept it to themselves:-). Hugs and best wishes! Pandita

John do you write professionally for anyone? Your words are magical and I can hear them so plainly in my mind that they sing off the page like a favored song. I am in awe of your talent my friend, sing on, Emile.
