LYRIC FOR SALE

By MLA

This is the hardest thing I’ve ever had to say when it should be the easiest
It’s what we all want to hear, but it frightens me so
To say the words that are always on my mind
To hope they are what you want to hear from my lips
I’ve been feeling this way for so many days
And I’ve told you already in so many ways
Tonight is the night I have to tell you in a language you can be sure of
This is the night I have to say “I love you”
I’ll pray all day that my courage stays with me
I’ll practice again and again till I get it just perfect
I want to say it at just the right time, in just the right place
To whisper it softly and mean every word
And for eternity, I want to remember
That you also said “I love you”
