Madness - How Can I Tell You? lyrics

Communication is a sk** you must acquire It will help you through your life It is essential You have to walk into this world with your head held high Be filled with child Don't become crystalline You're gonna have to swim with the molecules How can I tell you You have to open up your heart How can I tell you Be honest from the very start How I feel Make a stand for what is true Try to be decent in all that you do How can I tell you You've got to give to get support How can I tell you A little effort and a lot more thought How I feel Check the wonder in all that you see You've got to get loving unconditionally You're gonna have to walk that road You're gonna bear some heavy loads You'll make mistakes and you'll come close You're gonna get hurt by the one you love most You're gonna have to take some pain Accept the loss to live again Forgive yourself and you'll be free

There's more to love than just loving you see How can I tell you The laughter on a crowded bus How can I tell you Making space when you're being crushed How I feel A letter I received from you A hug and a kiss when you're feeling blue How can I tell you The last chocolate in the box How can I tell you A pair of mittens and some cotton socks How I feel I'll make a fire when you are cold Don't worry darling I'll love you when you grow old How can I tell you Six candles on your birthday cake How can I tell you A Christmas card that I helped you make How I feel When you ran in you're first race How can I tell you The time I stuck ice cream in your face The last chocolate in the box How can I tell you A pair of mittens and some cotton socks How can I tell you I'll make a fire when you are cold Don't worry darling I'll love you when you grow old.
