Things I'll never say lyrics

I'm tuggin' at my hair

I'm pullin' at my clothes

I'm tryin' to keep my cool

I know it shows

I'm staring at my feet

My cheeks are turning red

And I'm searching for the words inside my head

'Cause I'm feeling nervous

Tryin' to be so perfect

'Cause I know you're worth it, you're worth it

Yeah...

If I could say what I want to say

I'd say I want to blow you--away

Be with you every night

Am I squeezing you too tight?

If I could see what I want to see

I want to see you go down--on one knee

Marry me today

Guess I'm wishing my life away

With these things I'll never say

It don't do me any good it's just a waste of time

What use is it to you what's on my mind?

If it ain't comin' out, we're not going anywhere

So why can't I just tell you that I care?

'Cause I'm feeling nervous

Tryin' to be so perfect

'Cause I know you're worth it, you're worth it

Yeah...

If I could say what I wanna say

I'd say I want to blow you--away

Be with you every night

Am I squeezing you too tight?

If I could see what I wanna see

I want to see you go down--on one knee

Marry me today

Guess I'm wishing my life away

With these things I'll never say

(What is)What's wrong with my tongue?

These words keep slipping away

(I stutter)I stutter (I stumble)I stumble like I've got nothing to say

'Cause I'm feeling nervous

Trying to be so perfect

'Cause I know you're worth it, you're worth it

Yeah...

I guess I'm wishing my life away

With these things I'll never say

If I could say what I want to say

I'd say I want to blow you--away

Be with you every night

Am I squeezing you too tight?

If I could see what I want to see

I want to see you go down--on one knee

Marry me today

Guess I'm wishing my life away

With these things I'll never say
