Saying those 3 words, without saying them at all..
Country rock pop lyricist vocalist amateur
Hi, well, this is my first and only go at the music industry as of this point in my life. I used to write poetry and even got nominated as Amateur Poet of the Year (2003) by poetry.com.
I suppose this is a natural progression for me. Anyway, country is what I grew up on, and country has brought me back to it's loving bosom. I went astray with rap and alternative rock preferences, but now that I'm 28, I just want to lay back and think about my roots.
I write from the heart, though I do it without instruments. I write the lyrics and create the melody for my creations, so I hope you enjoy them.
Story behind the song
I just wanted to try to come up with a way to say those 3 little words without words actually getting in the way. Basically, what you do and feel when someone really does love you.
Lyrics
(Verse 1)
This started out as just a moment,
I had in my free time,
I started thinkin’ bout the million things,
You do that make you mine,
And if I had to choose the one way,
To convey the way I feel,
For the sake of all you mean to me,
And so you know my love is real,
[Chorus]
I wanna say I love you in a song,
I wanna make love all night long,
Run my fingers through your hair,
Say without words how much I care,
Hold you close till you fall asleep,
Touch your face so tenderly,
Tell me that I didn’t say this wrong,
I wanna say I love you in a song,
(Verse 2)
It’s been a long and uphill battle,
For all the years you’ve been with me,
From all the differences between us,
To all the words that cut so deep,
And though I’ve though about tomorrow,
And moving on with my life,
I couldn’t bear the thought of leaving you,
My best friend, my loving wife,
[Chorus]
I wanna say I love you in a song,
I wanna make love all night long,
Run my fingers through your hair,
Say without words how much I care,
Hold you close till you fall asleep,
Touch your face so tenderly,
Tell me that I didn’t say this wrong,
I wanna say I love you in a song,
(Outro)
So if you ever wonder how I feel,
My emotions are so strong,
I wanna say I love you,
In this song….
