The Weight

I think we spend too much time
Talking around what we need to say
I think theres always been something
Something youve been dying to say
Cuz Ive been dying to say this
But the words wont
They wont make their way out of my lips
Wont make the shape
I need to ask you
Why dont, why dont we try
Lets try to make what we have real
Cuz I laaaaaaah...
Oh I laahhhhh...
Oh I la-la-la-la-la-la-laaaaa...
I doooooo.
I cant say it, but
I know that
I do. I think you biting your lip hides
Something profound that
I wish youd say
My minds been racing
My hearts been waiting
It just wants me to say
What weve been hiding away
But the words wont
They wont make their way out of my lips
Wont make the shape
I need to ask you
Why dont, why dont we try
Lets try to make what we have real
Cuz I laaaaaaah...
Oh I laahhhhh...
How I la-la-la -la-la-la-laaaaa...
I do. 'Its just a word- just a single word!'
Telling myself that telling her
Is not a big thing
More than a word
It changes what she hears- what shes heard
What we are and what we once were
One of these days
Im going to have to take that risk
If Im going to be the man that she can see herself with
I can feel the weight this word can easily shift
Oh but I want to make it real
Cuz I laaaaaaah...
Oh I laahhhhh.. .
How I la-la-la-la-la-la-laaaaa...
I do. I cant say it, but
I know that
I do...
