Well, I met my true love, a long, long time ago,

And what I said then, it still goes today.

My line wasn't clever, words shot straight out from the heart,

Oh yeah I remember, just like yesterday.

A distant memory, I keep dusted off,

The words I said: I find you attractive.

These 4 words, innocent and dear,

They changed the course of our lives, to be sure, forever.

Now I'm not one to verbalize,

I assume that my baby knows,

All the thoughts that I'm thinking, feelings that I don't show.

Truth is she hungers to hear it, but my lips seem to be sealed,

Though I dream about moving them, nothing is revealed.

Chorus

Instrumental on verse

If my babe had a crowbar, maybe she could open me up,

And then there'd be an eruption, as I'd be blowing my top.

That'd sure be something, we'd prob'ly both end up in tears,

As the words came pouring out, been bottled up for years.

Whoa boy, it's getting late, my time'll be up soon.

I can hear her cry out, exactly, what to do.

She says:

“Whisper soft words to me, blow lightly in my ear.Say you want me madly.

”Hey, just tell her all the things she wants to hear.
