The Words to Say

You'd think that these words

Of a poet would come out

Too metaphorize this

But I've been searching all these years

It's more than the love

That word isn't strong enough

So, I guess we'll have to make one up

'Cause love isn't enough

It just isn't enough, love it isn't enough to say

And while you're sleeping

I think to myself, I'm giving you my name

Now darling, just keep dreaming

And one day you'll wake up and forget about all the rest and just move on

And love just isn't enough of a word to say

But I'll still love you every day

Love just isn't enough of a word to write

But I'll love you for the rest of my life

And nothing else felt right

We both decided not to fight

When I look at your face, nothing there to replace

Nothing more to overcome

I imagine our children

As I see your eyes in them

See in my mother's face and your grandfather's grace

And my father's will to try

And while you're sleeping

I think to myself, I'm giving you my name

Now darling, just keep dreaming

One day you'll wake up and forget about all the rest and just move on

And love just isn't enough of a word to say

But I'll still love you every day

Love just isn't enough of a word to write

But I'll love you for the rest of my life

Love just isn't enough of a word to say

But I will love you every day

Love just isn't enough of a word to write

But I'll love you for the rest of my life

Love just isn't enough of a word to say

But I will love you every day

Love just isn't enough of a word to write

But I'll love you for the rest of my

Love just isn't enough of a word to say

But I will love you every day

Love just isn't
