 The sun shines through  my  bedroom window  like a long  lost friend
 And I can't  describe  how  good it feels  to see  him back  again
 If I were  a  tender poet,  maybe I  could speak
 All those lines  and  perfect  phrases  just beyond  my reach
 And I'd like  to say  what's in  my heart,  but I  don't have  the  nerve
 And I'd tell  you that  I  love you,  but I  just can't  find  the words
 Maybe I could paint a picture and let the colors show
 All I've been keeping to myself, yet want the world to know
 Or maybe I could write a letter and keep it short and sweet
 No greeting card-type sentiment, just what you mean to me
 And I'd like to say what's in my heart, but I don't have the nerve
 And I'd tell you that I love you, but I just can't find the words
