How many ways lyrics

I've been travelling hard tho' there didn't seem much to move me

And my senses were numbed as the scenery passed right thru' me

Down a telephone line it was easy enough to lose me

But with you on my side, it was easy to ride

The storm and the tide, as they bruised me

How many ways are there left to say I love you?

I kept telling myself my wounds were on the mend

But my confidence slides when I can't tell who's a friend

There were nights when I cried and I could not see the end

But something within, made me still want to win

As I realized within me, was you

How many ways are there left to say I love you?

She said, "I don't know what to feel anymore

When you're home it's too much, when you're gone I'm unsure

Can't you admit there are times when you're wrong

You've been away from me one week too long"

I'd lean against bars, hopelessly killing time

Talking out dreams and drowning my fears in wine

Avoiding the bed that brings a sadness that's hard to define

When the day breaks again I go back to the same

Empty room, and the pain of us being apart

This is the time when I need to say I love you

How many ways are there left to say I love you?
