Words That Die Away

The feeling is lost when I put it to words
So I'll keep them bottled up and locked up
Like oragami against the wind, I'm hopeless
I could try to ignore them for the rest of my life

The things he says that makes my heart leap
The smile he gives, makes my heart skip a beat
And all those things that I want to say
Fill to the brim of my throat and die away

If I could write it on paper and read it out loud
I know I'd blush and stammer about. . .
How foolish to even say such a thing
A speech is not what my heart shouts out


The things he says that makes my heart leap
The smile he gives, makes my heart skip a beat
And all those things that I want to say
Fill to the brim of my throat and die away


Time passes and the seasons change
He wines and dines he buys for me still
Three years gone by, I stare I sigh
"I still can't say how I feel" 


The things he says that makes my heart leap
The smile he gives, makes my heart skip a beat
And all those things that I want to say
Fill to the brim of my throat and die away

The things you do that makes my heart leap
The smile you give, makes my heart skip a beat
And all those things that you want to say
Fill to the brim of my heart and stay that way
