about

A ballad on the difficulty of expressing love, despite feeling it so deeply.

lyrics

I’m not one for many words,
They say I live in my own world, sometimes.
I can’t quite put them into words,
The thoughts, emotions that all swirl in my mind.

How do I tell you how I feel
When the words can’t roll off of my tongue?
Tongue tied.
How do I tell you how I feel
When my brain is caught in a language barrier?
Tongue tied.

If I could give you my eyes to see,
Maybe then you would begin
To see the love I see when I look at you.
If I could give you my heart to feel,
Maybe then you would believe
What I feel even when I can’t say it to you.

Often times it’s past my reach;
Words elude, but meanings stick with me.
The only the way that they can flow
Is through the music and these songs I sing.

This is how I tell you how I feel,
Through the notes and chords upon these sheets I play.
This is how I tell you how I feel
Through the poems and lyric on these sheets to say

If I could give you my eyes to see,
Maybe then you would begin
To see the love I see when I look at you.
If I could give you my heart to feel,
Maybe then you would believe
What I feel even when I can’t say it to you.

Aye, I wanna melt down to our purest forms;
Scarlet, golden hue without skin and bones.
It’s not just love, it’s like we’re one,
and I won’t live without your sun.

Sirens blaring in my soul when I’m not next to you.
I’m the blade grass and baby you’re the morning dew.
No cliche can portray how much I’m really feeling,
Somehow I’ll make you believe it.

If I could give you my eyes to see,
Maybe then you would begin
To see the love I see when I look at you.
If I could give you my heart to feel,
Maybe then you would believe
What I feel even when I can’t say it to you.
