I'm trying hard not to say what I really feel
|
I wouldn't dare to
|
Don't want to scare you
|
The truth is I'm still afraid to say three words
|
So I sit tight-lipped
|
Let me try to spell it out
|
|
Not sure that I've got enough letters to express what I'm trying to say to you
|
I'm holding out for the triple word score
|
But I'm sure that nothing could be better than me and you
|
So baby for now it's less than four
|
|
If I counted all the twenty-five cent words
|
I could use to woo you I'd be bankrupt and at a loss for words
|
If I only could work up the nerve to be honest and courageous
|
I wouldn't have to spell it out
|
|
Not sure that I've got enough letters to express what I'm trying to say to you
|
I'm holding out for the triple word score
|
But I'm sure that nothing could be better than me and you
|
So baby for now it's less than four
|
|
Your smile I do attest
|
I'd be hard-pressed to dare protest
|
Your wiles I must confess
|
Albeit reluctantly they get the best of me
|
|
Not sure that I've got enough letters to express what I'm trying to say to you
|
I'm holding out for the triple word score
|
But I'm sure that nothing could be better than me and you
|
So baby for now it's less than four
