    Lyrics
    The words get trapped in my mind
    I'm sorry I don't take the time to feel the way I do
    'Cause from the first day you came into my life
    My time ticks around you
    But then I need your voice
    As a key to unlock all the love thats trapped in of me

    So tell me when it's time to say I love you

    All I want is you to understand
    That when I take your hand its 'cause I want to
    We're all born in a world of doubt
    But there's no doubt
    I love you

    And I feel lonely for
    All the losers that will never take the time to say
    What is really on their mind instead they just hide away
    And yet they'll never have
    Someone like you to guide them and help along the way

    So tell me when its time to say I love you
    So tell me when its time to say I love you
