Only Words dennispalmer © 2002

I have put myself out on this limb
When all you offered was a smile
I?m searching through your measured words
for a reason to believe
That all the love I feel inside
Is what you want and need

And all the sadness in your eyes
just makes me want to cry
I dream to hold you close to me
and sooth your troubled soul
to wash away the pain and tears
the heartache that you know

Chorus
So here I stand with only words
To tell you how I feel
Since I?ve been without a love
I?ve forgotten what is real
Love never felt like this before
Never right or true
Now all I want and need in life is just to be with you

To be in love and be alone
Is such a lonesome place to be
I can?t dance this dance all by myself
Without you here to hold
I?m as patient as the stars above
Waiting for our love to unfold

(Chorus)

Bridge
Funny how we laugh and cry
And call each other friend
Isn?t that the way they say the best of loves begin

(Chorus)
