Saying I love you 

Is not the words 

I want to hear from you 

It's not that I want you 

Not to say

But if you only knew 



How easy 

It would be to 

Show me how you feel 

More than words 

Is all you have to do 

To make it real

Then you wouldn't 

Have to say 

That you love me 

Cos I'd already know 

 

What would you do? 

If my heart 

Was torn in two 

More than words 

To show you feel 

That your love 

For me is real 

What would you say 

If I took 

Those words away 

Then you couldn't 

Make things new, 

Just by saying 

'I love you' 

More than words 

More than words

 

Now that I've tried to 

Talk to you 

And make you understand 

All you have to do 

Is close your eyes 

And just reach out your hands 



And touch me 

Hold me close, 

Don't ever let me go 

More than words 

Is all I ever 

Needed you to show 

Then you wouldn't 

Have to say 

That you love me 

Cos I'd already know 



What would you do? 

If my heart 

Was torn in two 

More than words 

To show you feel 

That your love 

For me is real 

What would you say 

If I took 

Those words away 

Then you couldn't 

Make things new, 

Just by saying 

'I love you' 

More than words 

More than words
