Lyrics
8. Slip & Say -
200705.30
V1
If I slip and say I love you
Don't listen
Darling, it was just a slip of the tongue
I just have so many friends & family
I say these words to
I accidentally said them to you
V2
If I slip and say I love you
While we're
tangled up in an embrace
Don't be scared or worried
Oh Honey, I'm in no hurry
You'd know that if you could see my face
V3
If I slip and say I love you
Please, don't listen
Or you may wrongly conclude
That we are somewhere we're not
And that might start a DTR
Or a 'Define The Relationship' talk
For those who don't know
BR
Oh, I'm not afraid to
Say what I mean and
mean just what I say
I just didn't have my head on straight today
Inst. Br.
If I slip and say I love you
Oh boy
You have my full permission to ignore
Or to translate these words
As I like you, value you, have fun with you
Just don't say I love you, too
I love you, too
Oooh, don't say 'Ditto'
Or te adoro
It was just
a slip of the tongue
