Say It Right

Lyrics

Verse 1
I hold your name like glass
In the palm of my hand
Every time you look my way
I lose my plan

I got a line on my tongue
But it breaks in two
I can talk to the whole world
Just not to you

Pre-Chorus
My chest gets loud
My mouth goes dry
I rehearse the truth
Then let it slide

One little word
Stuck in the dark
You’re right there
And I can’t start

Chorus
How do I say it?
How do I say it?
I love you, baby
I love you, baby

How do I say it?
How do I say it?
Say it for me
If you feel it too

Verse 2
I leave half-said texts
Then I erase them slow
Three little dots
And nowhere to go

You smile like you know
What I’m trying to hide
I play it cool
But I’m barely alive

Pre-Chorus
My hands shake once
Then I look away
If I had courage
I’d say your name

One little word
Feels so far
You’re right there
And I can’t start

Chorus
How do I say it?
How do I say it?
I love you, baby
I love you, baby

How do I say it?
How do I say it?
Say it for me
If you feel it too

Bridge
Maybe I don’t need
Perfect lines tonight
Maybe one breath
Could make it right

So if I trip
If my voice runs thin
Stay where you are
And let me in

Final Chorus
How do I say it?
How do I say it?
I love you, baby
I love you, baby

How do I say it?
How do I say it?
I’m right here now
I’m finally through
