- I can't begin to tell you
- How much you mean to me.
- My world would end
- If ever we were through.
-
- I can't begin to tell you
- How happy I would be
- If I could speak my mind
- Like others do.
-
- I make such pretty speeches
- Whenever we're apart.
- But when you're near
- The words I choose
- Refuse to leave my heart.
-
- So take the sweetest phrases
- The world has ever known
- And make believe
- I've said them all to you.
