Billy Joel Lyrics for Song: If I Only Had The Words (To Tell You)
 Lyrics for Album: Piano Man
 
 
 
 24949>If I only had the words to tell you
 If you only had the time to understand
 Though I know it wouldn't change your feelings
 And I know you'll carry on the best you can.
 
 If I only had the urge to tell you
 If you only knew how hard it is to say
 When the simple lines have all been taken
 And the radio repeats them ev'ry day.
 
 If I never find the song to sing you
 If you always find it hard to comprehend
 Well, you know there wouldn't be much meaning
 If I had to sing those tired words again.
 
 Life goes on and on
 And tonight will soon be gone
 But if we try we can be sure.
 
 If I only had the words to tell you
 If you only had the time to understand
 But I only have these arms to hold you
 And it's all that you can ask of any man.
 
 La la la la, la la la la
 
 If I only had the words to tell you
 If you only had the time to understand
 Oh, but I only have these arms to hold you
 And it's all that you can ask of any man.
