How to Say I Love You

You taught me how to ride a bike when I was only three You told me not to cry when I fell down and cut my knees You showed me how to play guitar to all your favourite songs I could tell that you were proud of me when I played along You never said it, but I knew After all you've given me I wanna give something to you Let me show you how to say I love you It's okay for you to tell me how you feel I wanna open up my arms and hug you I've never seen you cry, you keep it bottled up inside Fathers find it harder than mothers do So let me show you how to say I love you You taught me how to shake a hand and always grip it tight And every time I raise a glass to look them in the eye How to be a gentleman and how to talk to girls You said I could do anything I wanted in this world And all of my dreams have come true After all you've given me I wanna give something to you Let me show you how to say I love you It's okay for you to tell me how you feel I wanna open up my arms and hug you I've never seen you cry, you keep it bottled up inside Fathers find it harder than mothers do So let me show you how to say I love you It's hard to show emotion When you're raised to feel it's wrong But I don't think it makes you weak I think it makes you strong I just want to thank you for everything you do I'm the man I am today, all because of you Fathers find it harder than mothers do So let me show you how to say I love you
