Hard To Say

I knew the minute, baby, shook my hand
This is it, you gon' be my one and only man
But I can't get myself to say it, no, no
'Cause I'm afraid that you won't feel the same
So I'm gon' quiet and keep it to myself
Though I should let you know it, oh
But I just keep acting all casual
Always pretending I don't feel nothing at all

Oh, baby, if you only knew
And I know that it all could be possible
I know I gotta step up, 'cause right now I'm the fool
For losing my chance with you, boo-boo-boo-boo-boo

It's so easy to form your lips to say
(I) I want you, (I) I need you, (I) I love you, mmm
So why do I find it hard to say
When I know (I) I want you, (I) I need you, (I) I love you?

Yeah, I laugh aloud and speak my mind
But when I'm around you, I'm shy and fragile
I blush and can't meet your eye, boo-boo-boo-boo-boo
I really hate myself for holding back
But every time I try, my lights just fade to black
Oh, no, no, I can't just get it right
So now I'm hoping that you're gonna hear my song (Hear my song)
'Cause if I can't say it, I'll sing it, and I can't go wrong

Oh, baby, how hard can it be?
But I gotta hurry up 'cause it could be too late
Right before my eyes, someone could snatch you away
Mmm, and I'll only have myself to blame, bla-bla-bla-bla-blame

It's so easy to form your lips to say
(I) I want you, (I) I need you, (I) I love you, mmm
So why do I find it hard to say
When I know (I) I want you, (I) I need you, (I) I love you?
Yes, I do-do-do-do

I find it hard to say
See, sometimes I find it hard to say
Why, why, why, why do I find it hard to say?
Oh, I find it, I find it hard to say, say, say, say, say, say

It's so easy to form your lips to say
(I) I want you, (I) I need you, (I) I love you, oh, yes, I do
So why do I find it hard to say
When I know (I) I want you, (I) I need you, (I) I love you?

Oh, I know I want you, I know I need you, I know I love you
Oh, I know I want you, I know I need you, I know I love you
Oh, I know I want you, I know I need you, I know I love you
Oh, I know I want you, I know I need you, I know I love you
