How I Say That I Love You

(album: Irlish - 2001)

You know I love you what more can I say
Although the words themselves are not my way
For me a kiss that lasts a minute or two
Is how I say that I love you

The tea and toast I bring us up in bed
The pleasure I get when you stroke my head
That I can be there when you use the loo
Is how I say that I love you

And in the end what have we got
If not ourselves then not a lot

My friends they meet a girl and right away
The words I love you are all they can say
That I send flowers with the words guess who
Is how I say that I love you
If meningitis can so easily kill
Surely there are flaws
We're spending millions modifying our food
Could that not be a cause

You know I love you in a special way
Although the words themselves I rarely say
For me it's more than just the things we do
Is how I say that I love you

I found this photo from a few years back
Taken out in Spain
Your hair was longer
But apart from that
You look just the same

You know I love you in my own sweet way
Although the words themselves I rarely say
That I wear most of what you tell me to
Is how I say that I love you
Is how I say that I love you
