Come  here butter cup
 And let  me fill you up
Can't  you see I'm the blue in your skies
You  can't tell by the stars in my eyes
 ohh
Dawn  always comes too soon
 It hurts  me like a bruise
 There's a hole  in my pillow
 where you used to be
 It feels  like a hole in the middle of me
 ohhhh
 oh oh oh
 Just take my hand
 To have and hold if not obey
 oh oh oh
 Say you're still my man
 I try and find the words to say
 that I want you always to stay
 to wake  up with you
 every single day
 the words get in the way
 *Mute*
 Words get in the way
Tell  your boss your dead
 And let's  go back to bed
You  make me want to break out in song
 but every  time I try it just comes out wrong
 ohhh
 oh oh oh
 just take my hand
 to have and hold if not obey
 oh oh oh
 say you're still my man
 I try and find the words to say
 that I want you always to stay
 To wake  up with you
 every single day
 but the words get in the way
 Words get in the way
 I leave a message
 On your answering  machine
 I try to say
What  I really mean
 Ohhh
 oh oh oh
 Just take my hand
 To have and hold if not obey
 Oh oh oh
 say you're still my man
 I try and find the nerve to say
 that I want you always to stay
 to wake  up with you
 every single day
Oh  oh oh
 just take my hand
 to have and hold if not obey
 oh oh oh
 say you'll be my man
 i try and find the nerve to say
 that I want you always to stay
 to wake  up with you
 every single day
 words get in the way
 Words get in the way
