Unheard Word
(Vs)
I can't say I love you
love's not a strong enough word
It's beyond and above that
It's a word never heard
(Vs)
I can't even describe it
It can't be fathomed with ease
Comparisons are few
and there's none that would please
(Ch)
It's an unheard word, never uttered before
Cannot be written, only felt and explored
You can call it love, just to be assured
But it's something else,
it's an unheard word
(Vs)
Call it transcendental
This intensity I feel
Regard it as surpassing
What we know as real
(Vs)
It's too deep for me to grasp
but so easy to be felt
It is love at its grandest
yet above where it has dwelt
(Bridge)
How do you describe what's out of reach;
beyond what you thought you could feel?
What can you say to convey it's depth
without making it seem unreal?
(Ch)
It's an unheard word, never uttered before
Cannot be written, only felt and explored
You can call it love, just to be assured
But it's something else,
it's an unheard word
