Lyrics - Paroles de chansons

I pick the day, I pick the place
I pick the flowers for the table
Have the phrases memorized so carefully
You walk in, a smilin' man
Suddenly my mind's unable
To focus on these things so dear to me.

What I meant to say
Is that I'm in love
I never felt like this before
I could tell that you
Never had a clue
Searching for the things that I meant to say.

There are many pleasant things
I can keep my mind distracted
We can laugh and talk the evening's hours away (hours away)
It appears on the tip of my tongue
I'm so hopelessly attracted
But if I tried to tell you the words will stray.

What I meant to say
Is that I'm in love
I never felt like this before
Well, I could tell that you
Never had a clue
Searching for the things that I meant to say.

I'm the woman
But I can't tell you, oh.

It's a simple, honest thing
Just to close my eyes and tell you
There'll be one less person in your arms tonight.

What I meant to say
Is that I'm in love
I never felt like this before
Well, he's so good to me
And I know that we
Have to be together, my baby.

What I meant to say
Is that I'm in love
I never felt like this before
I can tell that you
Never had a clue
Searching for the things that I meant to say
