Lyrics

I CAN ONLY SAY "I LOVE YOU"
(So Posso Dizer Te Amo)

music by: Bill Davis
words by: Phil Morrison

The lyrics to this song,
May sound to you all wrong
It's just my way to say .....
I Love You!

No matter how I try
The words just pass me by
I can only say....
I Love You!

(1st bridge) Shakespeare and his plays - I've read them
I even know the ways he said them....but

Still I can't describe
This feeling deep inside
I can only say
I Love You!

........................------------.....................

I've tried with all my might
But nothing sounds quite right
I can only say
I Love You!

I wish that I could find
A more creative line
I can only say
I Love You!

(2nd bridge) Poets and their rhymes - I've read them
One hundred different times - I've said them....but

Nothing's more sincere
Than the words that you hear
When you hear me say
I Love You
I can only say....I Love You....
So Posso Dizer...Te Amo
