If I could put into words the way I love you
It would be like light from the sun
Like describing it's brightness to the sightless
Like telling a stone how a river can run
If I could capture my feelings on paper
It would be like a picture of rain
Though beautiful as a still life
The feeling? It wouldn't explain
If I could describe what my heart says
I don't know what language I would use
Not German, not Spanish, not even french
Who knows what part the words would lose...
If I could paint this feeling on canvas
What color could be so bright?
But still show the muted contentment
Portray not just happy, but right.
If I could bottle the dreams of starlight
Or capture the sweetness of dew
Harness the strength of the ocean
I still couldn't write how much I love you.
