Lyrics to The Things I Need to Say

Our silence makes the night much colder

And I can’t read the thoughts behind your eyes now

Waited so long, for a chance to tell you

The minutes wear away my heart

And can I make my life much bolder

Can I convince my mouth to tell you what I feel

Is this the time, ‘cause my heart keeps beating faster

And time won’t give back what it steals

And these are the things I need to say

I can’t wait another day

Can’t deny what I’ve been feeling

These are the things I need to do

Just to prove my heart is true

Can I be, the man I wanna be

And have I told you that I love you

And have I told you that you bring my soul alive

Girl do you know, that my world revolves around you

And can you see it in my eyes

I used to fear the door I’ve opened

Just knowing that I couldn’t take back what I said

But could I live without saying what I’m feelin’

What kind of life would I have led

And these are the things I need to say

Now I’ve figured out a way

To confess what I’ve been thinkin’

These are the things I need to do

Just to show my love for you

Can I be, the man I wanna be

Now that you’ve come to know what I’ve been hiding

Now that the truth has burst aflame

If I’ve set them free, the things I was denying

There’s only one hope left to name

So please just tell me that you feel, you feel the same

These are the things I need to say

I can’t wait another day

Can’t deny what I’ve been feeling

These are the things I need to do

Just to prove my heart is true

Can I be, the man you wanna see

These are the things I need to say

Now I’ve figured out a way

To confess what I’ve been thinkin’

These are the things I need to do

Just to show my love for you

Can I be, the man I wanna be

The man I wanna be
