    Lyrics
    Words get trapped in my mind
    Sorry I don't take the time to feel the way I do
    'Cause the first day you came into my life
    My time ticks around you

    But then I need your voice
    As the key to unlock
    All the love that's trapped in 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
    It's 'cause I want to
    We are all born in a world of doubt
    But there's no doubt
    I figured out
    I love you

    All I want is you to understand
    That when I take your hand
    It's 'cause I want to
    We are all born in a world of doubt
    And there's no doubt
    I figured out
    I love you

    And I feel lonely for
    All the losers that will never take the time to say
    What was really on their mind instead
    They just hide away
    Yet they'll never have
    Someone like you to guard them
    And help along the way
    Or tell them when it's time to say I love you

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