On the tip of my tongue, the words I love you
On the tip of my tongue, but I keep them from you
It's a happy song just waiting to be sung
I don't know why, I let it die,
On the tip of my tongue
Why can't I say these words, I know I want to say?
The time is right, but then I let it slip away
And you turn from me, as if you read my mind
If I'm cold to you, how long will you be kind?
On the tip of my tongue, the words I love you
On the tip of my tongue, but I keep them from you
It's a happy song just waiting to be sung
I don't know why, I let it die,
On the tip of my tongue
