[1st verse:]
|
Why search for flowery phrases
|
Quoting what poets have said
|
Why talk in circles around it
|
Why not be simple instead
|
Let's hit the nail on the head
|
|
[1st refrain:]
|
I love you, I love you
|
There's no other way
|
Just one way to say
|
I love you
|
|
I love you, I love you
|
And try as I may
|
That's all I can say
|
I love you
|
|
Much more could be said if I thought with my head
|
But I only can think with my heart
|
|
I love you, I love you
|
And yearn for the day
|
The day when you'll say
|
"I love you"
|
|
[2nd verse:]
|
I could be oh, so indiff'rent
|
With very little success
|
I could continue pretending
|
But I'm afraid you would guess
|
So why not simply say, "Yes"?
|
|
[2nd refrain:]
|
I love you, I love you
|
There's no other way
|
Just one way to say
|
I love you
|
|
I love you, I love you
|
And try as I may
|
That's all I can say
|
I love you
|
|
Much more could be said if I thought with my head
|
But I only can think with my heart
|
|
I love you, I love you
|
And this is the day
|
The day when we'll say
|
"I love you"
|
