Love You Like

Oh, oh

The right words are living on the tip of my tongue

But the oxygen just never seems to reach my lungs

The paper's blank but our story's just begun

Rehearsing love songs in my head but they are still unsung

I'm not a poet

I'm not a writer

My body never learned to show my love that way

But this unheard language

Has a broken cipher

A silent voice that calls your name out everyday

I want you like (oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)

I need you like (oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)

'Cause you are my (oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)

I love you like (oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)

I'm not a thesaurus

I can't find the turn of phrase

Like a dictionary searching for the right words to say

Before I embarrass myself with what I try to convey

I'm freezing up with feelings left there unexplained

'Cause I'm not a poet

I never was a writer

My body never learned to show my love that way

But this unheard language

Has a broken cipher

A silent voice that calls your name out everyday

I want you like (oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)

I need you like (oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)

'Cause you are my (oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)

I love you like (oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)

You fracture me into an anomaly

My desperation waiting for a chance to break free

A lifetime of "love you's" inside my head

Building worlds out of all of these words I haven't said

So I'll want you like (I will want you)

And I'll need you like (I will need you)

'Cause you are my (I will want you)

I love you like (oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
