Message to My Girl Songtext
I don′t want to say, "I love you"
That would give away too much
It's hip to be detached and precious
The only thing you feel is vicious
I don′t want to say, "I want you"
Even though I want you so much
It's wrapped up in conversation
It's whispered in a hush
Though I′m frightened by the words
Think it′s time that it was heard
No more empty self-possession
Visions swept under the mat
It's no New Year′s resolution
It's more than that
Now, I wake up happy
Warm in a lover′s embrace
No one else can touch us
While we're in this place
So I′ll sing it to the world
This simple message to my girl
No more empty self-possession
Visions swept under the mat
It's no New Year's resolution
It′s more than that
Though I′m frightened by the words
Think it's time I made it heard
So I′ll sing it to the world
A simple message to my girl
No more empty self-possession
Visions swept under the mat
It's no New Year′s resolution
It's more than that
Oh, there′s nothing quite as real
As the touch of your sweet hand
I can't spend the rest of my life
Buried in the sand
That would give away too much
It's hip to be detached and precious
The only thing you feel is vicious
I don′t want to say, "I want you"
Even though I want you so much
It's wrapped up in conversation
It's whispered in a hush
Though I′m frightened by the words
Think it′s time that it was heard
No more empty self-possession
Visions swept under the mat
It's no New Year′s resolution
It's more than that
Now, I wake up happy
Warm in a lover′s embrace
No one else can touch us
While we're in this place
So I′ll sing it to the world
This simple message to my girl
No more empty self-possession
Visions swept under the mat
It's no New Year's resolution
It′s more than that
Though I′m frightened by the words
Think it's time I made it heard
So I′ll sing it to the world
A simple message to my girl
No more empty self-possession
Visions swept under the mat
It's no New Year′s resolution
It's more than that
Oh, there′s nothing quite as real
As the touch of your sweet hand
I can't spend the rest of my life
Buried in the sand
