If I Could Say the Words

I wish that you were in my arms tonight And I could tell you the secret I've been keeping inside I know my words could steal your heart If I could say them right I can't pretend I'm not afraid As I'm picturing us face to face You can wish on a star Close your eyes And wherever you are I'll be there for you Until it comes true But if your dreams fall a part I'll still be the light in your darkest hour I'd find a way If I could say the words I've been holding back so long Rehearsing the lines I played out this scene a dozen times Now my heart is in your hands Can't you understand That I know exactly what to say When it's you and I face to face You can wish on a star Close your eyes And wherever you are I'll be there for you Until it comes true But if your dreams fall a part I'll still be the light in your darkest hour I'd find a way If I could say the words And how many nights Can I dream that I've said All these words Then to wake to find It was all in my head That I know exactly what to say When it's you and I face to face You can wish on a star Close your eyes And wherever you are I'll be there for you Until it comes true But if your dreams fall a part I'll still be the light in your darkest hour I'd find a way If I could say the words Say the words
