If I Could Say the Words

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I wish that you were in my arms tonight And I could tell you the secret I've been keeping inside I know my words could steal your heart, if I could say them right I can't pretend I'm not afraid as I'm picturing us face to face [Chorus] You can wish on a star, close your eyes and wherever you are I'll be there for you until it comes true But if your dreams fall apart, I'll still be the light in your darkest hour I'd find a way if I could say the words, oh [Verse 2] I've been holding back so long, rehearsing the lines I played out this scene a dozen times Now my heart is in your hands, can't you understand? (Can't you understand?) That I know exactly what to say when it's you and I face to face [Chorus] But you can wish on a star, close your eyes and wherever you are I'll be there for you until it comes true But if your dreams fall apart, I'll still be the light in your darkest hour I'd find a way if I could say the words (Say the words) [Bridge] And how many nights can I dream that I've said All of these words then wake to find it was all in my head? That I know exactly what to say (Oh-oh) When it's you and I face to face [Chorus] You can wish on a star, close your eyes and wherever you are I'll be there for you (For you) until it comes true (Oh, yeah) But if your dreams fall apart, I'll still be the light in your darkest hour (In your darkest hour, oh, yeah) I'd find a way if I could say the words (I could say the words) [Outro] Say the words
