ThingsEverything I say to you seems to come out all wrongSo I'll stop speaking sentences, instead I'll sing a song And the sound of my voice might soothe that thing in you That can't believe the words I speak or what I say is true There's no way to convince someone who won't be brought around By talking, it's noisy scene, while singing's more a sound So when I say I love you it's just aching I've said Off my tongue, out of my mouth, laid up in my head But when I say I love you that's a different thing Nothing smart, just some guts and heart since I mean what I say When I sing I do something it's not a thing I try So it sounds believable - I cannot sing a lie This song's almost over, it's short, I'm almost through I'm sorry for some sentences - I said what I told you One says stuff to anyone, but you are another thing If this feels familiar it's because of thee I sing |
