If I were a wordsmith

I'd make the words sound right

If I was a poet

I'd make my thoughts sound tight

If I saw the answer

There is no height to high

Babe I've got the feelings

But I can't say it right

I can't say it right

Maybe if I slow down

Maybe I'm too cruel

If I try to force it

I'm gonna lose my cool

Everytime I chase it

It feels so out of sight

Got a lot to tell you

But I can't say it right

I can't say it right

I can't say it right

I can't say it right

Afraid to say another word

And get the answer wrong

An awkward silence fills the room

And I just play along

I wish I could just blurt it out

And make it go away

I know you probably got a lot to say

-Instrumental-

But I can't say it right

I can't say it right

I can't say it right

I can't say it right
