If I Can't Find The Words
Ronan Keating · Other Songs - Ronan Keating
Oh oh oh oh
WaitinÂ’ for this feelinÂ’
That IÂ’m drowninÂ’ in to subside
You make me swim like a beginner
Like IÂ’m new at life
And all these words donÂ’t come easy
No they always seem to stall
There is awkward silence yeah-yeah
Anytime we talk
Oh but I wanna let you in
I wanna ease all your doubts
I keep tryinÂ’ to get it out
[Chorus]
But if I canÂ’t find the words
To tell you what IÂ’m feelinÂ’
Baby that donÂ’t mean
It donÂ’t mean that I donÂ’t feel it
IÂ’m tryinÂ’ to tell you girl
But if you donÂ’t believe just look and see
My face says what you mean to me
When I canÂ’t find the words
I know I can send you flowers
To try to make my feelinÂ’s clear
And girl, I could hold you tight for hours
I wanna tell ya what youÂ’re tryinÂ’ to hear
Oh and I wanna let you in
I wanna ease all your doubts
I keep tryinÂ’ to get it out
But if I canÂ’t find the words
To tell you what IÂ’m feelinÂ’
Well baby that donÂ’t mean
It donÂ’t mean that I donÂ’t feel it
IÂ’m tryinÂ’ to tell you girl
But if you donÂ’t believe just look and see
My face says what you mean to me
When I canÂ’t find the words
Girl I know sometimes I leave you so upset
‘Cause I got all these bits and pieces in my head
I know IÂ’m a puzzle and you struggle with the things that I havenÂ’t said
When I canÂ’t find the words
No I canÂ’t
When I canÂ’t find the words
When I, when I, when I canÂ’t find the words
I wanna ease all your doubts (ease all your doubts)
I keep tryinÂ’ to get it out
But if I canÂ’t find the words
To tell you what IÂ’m feelinÂ’
Well baby that donÂ’t mean
It donÂ’t mean that I donÂ’t feel it
IÂ’m tryinÂ’ to tell you girl
But if you donÂ’t believe just look and see
My smile says what you mean to me
When I canÂ’t find the words
If I canÂ’t find the words
To tell you what IÂ’m feelinÂ’
Well baby that donÂ’t mean
It donÂ’t mean that I donÂ’t feel it
I wanna tell you girl, what you donÂ’t believe
Look and see, my smile says what you mean to me
(My smile says what you mean to me)
When I canÂ’t find the words
