A Thousand Words Unspoken

There are a thousand words that I could use to tell you how I feel

I could just come out and say it, but I'd rather be for real

Cause I know that you can read me like some kind of crazy book

I know you'll understand me if I just pass you a look

Besides you know me better, I'm too shy to use the words

I'll tell you in my own way, I'll act it out in verbs

Here's how I will do it, here's how I know you'll know

That I have love for you inside, this is how it goes:

Today I'm going to touch you like I never have before

I'm going to make you feel so good that you will plead for more

I'll leave a kiss upon your cheek that you just won't forget

And smile at you like I did that fateful day we met

I'll tickle you and watch you squirm while lit up you become

As your laughter grows in volume, I know you will succumb

To me, because I'm doing things that no one's done before

To you, so that you'll understand, I'm opening the door

To a world where we belong, where we could stay forever

I want to love you all my life and give up on you never

I'm going to hold you in my arms and get lost in your eyes

I'm betting that you'll comprehend what I mean to imply

I'll rub your forehead gently as you're drifting off to sleep

I'll stop just when you get there so that it will hit you deep

That you don't want to be without me, you could not survive

You'll know then that you need me always to keep your soul alive

I'll soflty blow into your ear simply cause I want to

And if I do it right then when I'm gone it still should haunt you

Making you want me to come back, do it all again

In fact, you'll wish that still I was with you where I had been

But I will be long gone and I'll have left you with a thought

I'll be on your mind all night with feelings you once fought

That's how I'm going to do it, that's how I will impart

I'll show you with my actions that I've given you my heart

A thousand words would do it, I know they really could

But I'd like it better knowing that you actually understood

The things that I had done to you were my way of conveying

Feelings that I have for you that I just can't help saying

Even if it's silent, and a little bit absurd

At least I'll know you got the message in my unspoken words
