There are things that should be easy to say When you know you love someone While waiting for the moment to come Another day has gone The stupid fears I keep inside That only heaven knows They scare me every time I have to Face those simple words And then goodbyes are round the corner And then goodbyes don't last one day So I'm scared the time is running out And I see you walk away There are goodbyes that no one cares about N' others so hard to face So I'm trying to sing this song for you For the words I need to say... I learned my lesson once I thought I learned my lesson twice And I know how bad it feels inside When I can't make up my mind Senseless words and sleepless nights And my life's just falling apart Oh tell me Lord why's it take so long To let my heart speak out 'cause then goodbyes are round the corner And then goodbyes don't last one day So I'm scared the time is running out And I'll see you fade away There are goodbyes that no one cares about And others so hard to face So I'm trying to sing this song to you 'Cause it's time for me to say I love you
