I Can't Begin to Tell You

I can't begin to tell you
How much you mean to me.
My world would end if ever we were through.

I can't begin to tell you
How happy I would be
If I could speak my mind like others do.

I make such pretty speeches
Whenever we?re apart,
But when your near
The words I choose
Refuse to leave my heart.

So take the sweetest phrases
The world has ever known
And make believe
I've said them all to you.
