I'll Never Tell
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I’ll never tell how much i love you
Never show how much i care
I won’t speak a single solitary word
Until i’m well enough above you
To say hello to you down there
Well then and only then i’ll rest assured
People say how can you be so cruel
Well it’s easy when you’re me
You know you’ll always be an exception to the rule
And they say it’s all in my foolish pride
It’s getting in the way
It’s the reason i don’t say what i feel inside
I’ll never tell how much i love you
Never show how much i care
I’ll never speak a single solitary word
Until i’m well enough above you
To say hello to you down there
Then and only then i’ll rest assured
I’m happy just to sit with you like this
And you don’t have to talk at all
I just enjoy the company
Especially when he or she is
In it for the long haul
We could boggle we could sing or we could not do anything at all
It’s neither here nor there
And i don’t really care
It’s your call
I’ll never tell how much i love you
Never show how much i care
I’ll never speak a single solitary word
Until i’m well enough above you
To say hello to you down there
Well then and only then i’ll rest assured
