Alex Kahn - Say the Words

I take a peek over your shoulder
See your eyes twitch in the night
You're a ship and I'm the iceberg
But I'm still way out of sight

I remember when you told me
Love is not a match for swords
But your voice whispers me to
Say the words
Say the words
Say the words

I
L, O
V, E, Y, O
You, You
You
It isn't hard to do
Just say it if it's true

But you make it seem so easy
You come like an early spring
Melting all my dirty sleet
Teaching all my birds to sing

Now we're fighting in the driveway
About the trip we can't afford
I'd rather go to central PA
Than say the words
Say the words

Love is hanging in the balance
Tightrope walking over spikes
You can feel it for a second if you try
But if you lean too hard
To the left or to the right
You can lose it all before you've taken flight
And then we'll just be strangers in the night

In the frozen food aisle
Looking for some ice cream
I recognized a smile
Reflecting back at me

And a man awkwardly turning
Makes a joke that's just for you
Though he stumbles I can hear him
Say the words
Say the words
Say the words

I
L, O
V, E, Y, O
You, You
You
It isn't hard to do
Just say it if it's true
Just say it if it's true
Just say it if it's true
