Take these words they come out wrong They won't express this old emotional thing If you could see inside my mind You'd know the love and feel this passionate thing You stepped into my locked out world I felt your touch on my shoulder You turned my mind right over Like a child before it learns to speak I turn to stone, I turn to stone Heaven give me words to tell you How I am feeling What I am needing Heaven let this message reach you This desperation Will stop my heart from beating I won't be giving in I'll die if I don't tell you just how I feel I'll make you truly understand What kind of man could live with feelings Of steel I used to be so self contained When I thought about love A conversation heart to heart I must confess this old emotional thing Before you think that I'm a fool There's a flame that burns here Here's a feeling that's so rare It's my nightmare when I go to speak I turn to stone, I turn to stone Heaven give me words to tell you How I am feeling What I am needing Heaven let this message reach you This desperation Will stop my heart from beating Heaven give me words Heaven give pride Heaven let this message reach you You've seen a heart worn on my sleeve I must express this old emotional thing Please be a witness to my dreams Or I'll wake up and say now Can this be real? Before you think that I'm a fool There's a flame that burns here Here's a feeling that's so rare It's my nightmare when I go to speak I turn to stone, I turn to stone Heaven give me words to tell you How I am feeling What I am needing Heaven let this message reach you This desperation Will stop my heart from beating Heaven give me words to tell you How I am feeling What I am needing Heaven let this message reach you This desperation Will stop my heart from beating Heaven give me words Heaven give pride Heaven let this message reach you
