What I'm Trying To Say

I’m not a man of many words
You’ve never seen me cry
I’m doing the best I can for you

I show my strength on the outside
And hold my head up high as I lead the way
‘Cause I wanna be a man for you

But bein’ a man doesn’t make it easy
To tell you how I feel

Have I ever told you I feel alone when you’re not around
Have I ever said what it means
To me when we walk and you hold my hand

Have I ever told you how I need you when I’m feeling sad
Have I ever taken time to say
What it means that you stand by me

Every time that I say I love you
This is what I’m trying to say

I know it isn’t always right
For me to hold back everything
That doesn’t make it easy for me to do

I’m broken up on the inside
You took my heart and I wouldn’t want it any other way
I’m a shell of a man without you

But bein’ a man doesn’t make it easy
To tell you how I feel

Have I ever told you I feel alone when you’re not around
Have I ever said what it means
To me when we walk and you hold my hand

Have I ever told you how I need you when I’m feeling sad
Have I ever taken time to say
What it means that you stand by me

Every time that I say I love you
This is what I’m trying to say

And I’m sorry for all the times that
I never told you the things you deserve to know
Yeah, I’m sorry for all the times that
I never told you

Have I ever told you I feel alone when you’re not around
Have I ever said what it means
To me when we walk and you hold my hand

Have I ever told you how I need you when I’m feeling sad
Have I ever taken time to say
What it means that you stand by me

Have I ever told you I feel alone when you’re not around
Have I ever said what it means
To me when we walk and you hold my hand

Have I ever told you how I need you when I’m feeling sad
Have I ever taken time to say
What it means that you stand by me

Every time that I say I love you
This is what I’m trying to say
This is what I’m trying to say

Every time that I say I love you
This is what I’m trying to say
