LYRICS:
VERSE 1
Sayin I love you is not the words I want to hear from you
It's not that I want you not to say but if you only knew
how easy it would be to show me how you feel
more than words is all you have to do to make it real
then you wouldn't have to say that you love me
'cause I'd already know
CHORUS
What would you do
if my heart was torn in two?
more than words to show you feel
that your love for me is real
What would you say
if I took those words away?
Then you couldn't make things new
just by sayin' "I love you"
la di da da da di da da di da..etc...
VERSE 2
Now that I have tried to talk to you and make you understand
all you have to do is close your eyes and just reach out your hands
and touch me, hold me close don't ever let me go
more than words is all i ever needed you to show
then you wouldn't have to say
that you love me 'cause I'd already know.
Special thanks to Ben Yao (byau@jarthur.claremont.edu) whose tab I heavily modified to come up with this more complete tab. Credit goes especially to him for the lyrics and all the plucking at the end which I didn't have to patience to figure out myself.
