Michael Guy Bowman Three Small Words
Say it isn't so hard to hear the things I have to say
Say that I'm just a fool to think there's something in the way
I can always call you
I could never call you
Say I won't have to wait for some occasion to arise
Say the words I would say to you would come as no surprise
I can never tell you
I can only show you
One small chance
One thin line
No damn way I can conceive to say what's on my mind
I love you
Three small words
Just the dumbest thing I'm sure that you have ever heard
Each time I try to call it feels absurd
Say the truth deep inside your soul will only set you free
Say this kind of exposure makes you just as scared as me
I can hear my own voice
Rehearsing-all-alone-voice
Say if you saw me at my worst you would not turn away
Say there's more to look forward to than wondering what to say
Something I believe in
I'd take such relief in
One small chance
One thin line
No damn way I can conceive to say what's on my mind
I love you
Three small words
Just the dumbest thing I'm sure that you have ever heard
For now I guess the call remains deferred
