I'll Have to Say I Love You in a Song
Expressing Love Through Melodies: Clint Black's Musical Confession
Lyrics
Well, I know it's kinda late.
Expressing awareness of the lateness of the moment.
I hope I didn't wake you.
Apologizing for the possibility of waking the listener.
But what I gotta say can't wait,
Highlighting the urgency of the message to be conveyed.
I know you'd understand.
Confident that the listener would comprehend the importance.
Every time I tried to tell you,
Acknowledging difficulty in expressing feelings verbally.
The words just came out wrong,
Previous attempts to communicate love were unsuccessful.
So I'll have to say I love you in a song.
Opting to convey love through a song due to verbal struggles.
Yeah, I know it's kinda strange.
Recognizing the peculiarity of the situation.
Every time I'm near you,
Experiencing speechlessness when close to the listener.
I just run out of things to say.
Running out of words to express feelings verbally.
I know you'd understand.
Trust in the listener's understanding despite the silence.
Every time I try to tell you,
Repeating the challenge of verbalizing emotions accurately.
The words just came out wrong,
Emphasizing the ongoing struggle in expressing love verbally.
So I'll have to say I love you in a song.
Choosing to resort to expressing love through a song.
Every time the time is right,
Highlighting the difficulty of finding the right words.
All the words just came out wrong,
Reiterating the challenge of verbal expression at the opportune moment.
So I'll have to say I love you in a song
Reaffirming the decision to express love through songwriting.
Yeah I know it's kinda late.
Repeating the acknowledgment of lateness in expressing emotions.
Hope I didn't wake you,
Reiterating the hope not to disturb the listener.
But there's something I just gotta say.
Stating the existence of something important to communicate.
Know you'd understand.
Confident in the listener's understanding of the message.
Every time I try to tell you,
Persisting difficulty in verbally confessing love.
The words just came out wrong
Recurrence of unsuccessful attempts to express feelings verbally.
So I'll have to say I love you in a song.
Reiterating the choice to convey love through a song.
