Say the Words Lyrics

Uh, this is for my
This is for my
One love, one love

I had a dream when I was just a little boy
To find a girl like you
We would meet at the park at school
And talk 'till the day was through
Then take a trip to your parents' house
And I would comb your hair
And we would dream of all the cities
And places we could go

Oh, oh, oh
Say the words that you know I wanna hear
Put your heart up close to my ear
We don't need to know the time
We could stay till the days turns to night

I can still remember dreams as a little boy
Now I'm man and still can't write down my toes
Hey, hey, hey
Real love will never come if you in it now
But I had to learn that lesson down in the sub
Back to spending nights on the town just to have a little fun
In my mind I'm wishing she's the one
(I said to myself)
Is this to close to reality
For you to be that girl from my fantasy

Oh, oh, oh
Say the words that you know I wanna hear
Put your heart up close to my ear (baby, oh yeah)
We don't need to know the time
We could stay till the days turns to night

Ooh, woah
She stole my head and let's go play the dream again
Uh, to find a girl like you (only you and me around)
I look into your eyes
I might see a universe, you and I are intertwined
I look into your eyes
I might see a universe
Love is pure, so divine (oh, oh, oh)

Say the words that you know I wanna hear
Put your heart up close to my ear (put it right here, baby)
We don't need to know the time
We could stay till the days turns to night (hey)

Say the words that you know I wanna hear
Put your heart up close to my ear (oh baby)
We don't need to know the time (the time)
We could stay till the days turns to night, hey

This is dedicated from the fire we'll write
To my one and only little love
I will never, ever, ever love again

This is dedicated (you know who you are)
To my one and only little love
Only girl I'll ever love
Hey, yeah
Hey, yeah
