We drove for hours
And we talked the whole way
I'm so enamored with the
Things that you say
You talk so sweetly
I can taste it on my tongue
You got me spinnin'
Got me feeling
Like I'm something special
But I'm not sure I really am
Cause I choke on all my opportunities
To say things right
I'm gonna try it now

What I wanted to say
What I wanted to say was
What I wanted to say was

I love you so much
I love you so much
I love you so much
What I wanted to say was

We got to the city
And you put your arm around my arm
And held me close
I felt so close
And then I felt it slipping slowly
Through my fingers
Down my leg and to the floor
Like a sudden skipping
Where the word it gets away
When we need it there beside my hand
And on my lips

What I wanted to say was
What I wanted to say was
What I wanted to say was
What I wanted to say was

I love you so much
I love you so much
What I wanted to say was
I love you so much
I love you so much
I love you so much
