If I Only Had the Words (To Tell You)

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 every 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
