Falling Coconuts - Saying the Words Lyrics

Cheer up, brown eyes
I hate to see you down.
I wish they saw u how I see ya
I wish you saw u how I see ya
Chin up, baby boy
Don't let 'em get you down.
I should just tell you how I feel,
I think I'll tell u when I see ya...

Sayin' the words
"I love you" is not enough,
I wanna count the black hairs on your belly as they turn grey and rough.
We might not make it
But I want you there with me
In the end.
The dreams I have for myself I have for u too my friend.
The dreams I have for myself I have for you too my friend.

Laid up in the light
And you can't sleep again.
Why morning seems so far away at 10:00?
I promise you the sun will rise again.
Tell me something good!
Easier said than done.
I spell it out and then I space it back,
I should just tell u when I see ya...

Sayin' the words
"I love you" is not enough.
I wanna tickle grey hairs on your tummy as they turn grey and rough.
We might not make it but I want u there with me in the end.
The dreams I have for myself I have for u too my friend.

I see u in the river
I see u in the sun
I see u in the backseat
I see u having fun
I see u eating good
I see u with your mom
I see u with your brother
I see u coming home
