Artist/Band: Billy Joel
Lyrics for Song: If I Only Had The Words (To Tell You)
Lyrics for Album: Piano Man [1973]



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.
