Bobby McFerrin - Mere Words lyrics

rate me

All these songs of love's first flight

they don't sing ours just right

So I stayed up half the night

to write a song of love for you

There are the words that say these things

but I can't think of one that brings

all the joy that I could sing in a song of love for you

This is crazy

I'm so hazy

and not so sure of myself

All the love I feel in my heart for you

a mere song couldn't handle

So I'll abandon this project

Who am I foolin'?

I'm no poet

I just thought if you didn't know yet

that I need your love to see me through

~ Instrumental ~

This is crazy

I'm so hazy

and not so sure of myself

All the love I feel in my heart for you

a mere song couldn't handle

So I'll abandon this project

Who am I foolin'?

I know full well

I just thought if you didn't know yet

that I need your love to see me through

Yes I'm a failure

I couldn't see my way through to the end

I know we're not through, my friend

there's so much for us left to do

cause' there's no one quite like you

there's no one quite like you
