I got something for you, man.
(You gotta say it, you gotta say it)
Silence is golden but these are the words
that the world needs to hear. (Brothers and sisters)
Terms of compassion will cause a reaction
As love drawls them near
But still we choose to hide behind the face of pride
Pretending we are blind to the calling
This is my point and case, if hate can be erased
With such a simple phrase, why are we stalling?
Say the words, say the words, say "I love you" (Say "I love you").
Say the words I long to hear (I long to hear them).
Say the words, say the words, say "I love you" (Say "I love you").
Say the words I long to hear (I long, I long, I long to hear them).
Ya gotta say it, ya gotta say it, say it.
Some just assume we already know
Of the love that they feel. (Brothers and sisters)
Some have a heartfelt emotion
But never the words to reveal.
I think we all relate, so why are we afraid
To let our hearts convey what we're feeling?
There is a world in need with hungry souls to feed
And love can intercede if we're willing, so...
Say the words, say the words, say "I love you" (Say "I love you").
Say the words I long to hear (I long to hear them).
Say the words, say the words, say "I love you" (Say "I love you").
Say the words I long to hear (I long, I long, I long to hear them).
Ya gotta say it, ya gotta say it, say it.
The word love, well it was once overused
back in the 70's the word was abused
But I refuse to let love be diluted.
We can't allow physical lust to intrude it.
Or pollute it cause there ain't no excuse
for the greatest gift of all to be abused
So choose to lose the pride that may tug at you.
Don't be afraid of the words "I love you".
Say the words, say the words, say "I love you".
Say the words I long to hear (I long to hear them).
Say the words, say the words, say "I love you" (Say "I love you").
Say the words I long to hear (I long, I long, I long to hear them).
Say the words, say the words, say "I love you" (Say "I love you").
Say the words I long to hear (I long to hear them).
Say the words, say the words, say "I love you" (Say "I love you").
Say the words I long to hear (I long, I long, I long to hear them).
