More Than Words

Nobody really wants to be the lonely

I'm a stay this way for now

I'm just trying my best to be honest and open

But I'm still learning how

I'm not saying that I'm hopeless

At some point it's got to be real

But I must confess that I'm more or less

Where I need to be

This is hard for me

'Cause I wanna hold you, I wanna touch you

It's the game I usually played

I wanna feel you, I wanna be with you

And I know just what to say

It would be the sweetest thing you ever heard

And despite all the things I wanna do to you

This time I'm gonna be more than words

This time I'm gonna be more than words

Ready to let somebody get to know me, yea

Not just only skin to skin

But to alleviate the pressure, pressure

Before we begin

Could you be that special somebody?

'Cause I'm so willing to wait

But I must confess that I'm more or less

Where I need to be

This is hard for me

'Cause I wanna hold you, I wanna touch you

It's the game I usually played

I wanna feel you, I wanna be with you

And I know just what to say

It would be the sweetest thing you ever heard

And despite all the things I wanna do to you

This time...

Being close to you only makes it worse

If we rush then somebody will get hurt

This is truly extraordinary

You might be the girl for me

Still I wanna hold you, I wanna touch you

It's the game I usually played

I wanna feel you, I wanna be with you

And I know just what to say

It would be the sweetest thing you ever heard

And despite all the things I wanna do to you

This time... I'm gonna be more than words

More than words

More than words

More than words

More than... Words

More than words

More than words

More than words
