How Can I Say
Jeffrey J La Point 1977 (Ohio)
How Can I Say
How can I say I love you, if I can never find the words? How can I say I love you, if my words often go unheard?
How can I say I need you, when you never come around? How can I say I need you, if you do not feel the same?
How can I say I miss you, if you say you have moved on? How can I say I miss you, when you always walk away?
How can I say I hate you, if I can never find the words? How can I say I hate you, if my words often go unheard?
How can I say I do not want you, when you never come around? How can I say I do not want you, if you do not feel the same?
How can I say I forgot you, if you say you have moved on? How can I say I forgot you, when you always walk away?
How can I say, I love you? I need you? I miss you?
When, I hate you! I do not want you! I forgot you!
