Well, I know it's kind of late
I hope I didn't wake you
But what I got to say can't wait
I know you'd understand

'Cause every time I tried to tell you
The words just came out wrong
So I'll have to say I love you in a song

Yeah, I know it's kind of strange
But every time I'm near you
I just run out of things to say
I know you'd understand
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsfreak.com/j/jim+croce/i+love+you+in+a+song_20807759.html ]
'Cause every time I tried to tell you
The words just came out wrong
So I'll have to say I love you in a song

'Cause every time the time was right
All the words just came out wrong
So I'll have to say I love you in a song

Yeah, I know it's kind of late
I hope I didn't wake you
But there's something that I just got to say
I know you'd understand

'Cause every time I tried to tell you
The words just came out wrong
So I'll have to say I love you in a song
