The Bangles - What I Meant to Say lyrics

I pick the day, I pick the place I pick the flowers for the table Have the phrases memorized so carefully You walk in smiling and Suddenly my mind's unable To focus on these things so dear to me What I meant to say is that I'm in love I never felt like this before I could tell that you never had a clue Searching for the things that I meant to say There are many pleasant things I can keep my mind distracted We can laugh and talk till evening, hours away Here it is on the tip of my tongue I'm so hopelessly attracted But if I try to tell you the words will stray What I meant to say is that I'm in love I never felt like this before I could tell that you never had a clue Searching for the things that I meant to say I found more love than I can tell you of It's a simple honest thing Just to close my eyes and tell you There'll be one less person in your arms tonight What I meant to say is that I'm in love I never felt like this before He's so good to me and I know that we Had to be together, my baby What I meant to say is that I'm in love I never felt like this before I can tell that you never had a clue Searching for the things that I meant to say
