TWAIN HARTE

I lost my words

and nodded silently

I’m just saying that

I’m so in love with you

They must have followed you

across the sea,

pulled down the line, because

I’m so in love with you

So when you call me

from tomorrow,

asking how I feel today?

and I talk of illustrating

a new painting

for your room

I’m just saying that

I’m so in love with—

You got my word

all I'm saying is

I’m so in love with you

I lost my words

and nodded silently

I want to tell you that

I’m so in love with you

and I’ll follow you

across the sea,

pulled by the lines that mean

I’m so in love with you

So when you call me

from tomorrow

asking how I feel today?

and I talk about the town

in mountains,

down where we could move

I’m just saying that

I’m so in love with—

You got my word

all I’m saying is

I’m so in love with—

You got my word

all I’m saying is

I’m so in love with you
