Now if I say it real pretty in a pretty rhyme
Does your mind get cloudy?
That's a dirty crime
Does it do things any good to tell you that I'm standing here because I love you?

You say the voice is soothing
Got those hypnotic eyes
But man, I wouldn't want to hand you any alibis
You can blame it all on what you can
But do you see just where I am?
I love you

I had a flash
I saw you crying in the night
I said a prayer
I saw you walking in the night
And you were saying how it all once was
And how your life had changed because He loves you
And then you turned to tell someone who wouldn't believe you
When you said, "I love you"

Now if I find it rough-going in expressing myself
And between the lines it's coming from somebody else
Don't you leave it all together
Put this upon the shelf
I said I love you

Now if I say it real pretty in a pretty rhyme
Does your mind stay cloudy?
That's a dirty crime
Does it do things any good to tell you that I'm standing here because I love you?

I love you, love you
Yes I do
I said I love you
