How can I tell you I love you?
How
can I show you I care?
How
can I tell you I love you,
when
I'm hardly ever there?
Capo IV
G C A / / / Bm C A G

Oh my sweet little child,
you're such a bright ray of
light!
You gave me hope when I needed
faith restored in this life.
You needed someone to be there.
I needed someone to love.
I think I learned more than I
taught you.
Found a love as deep as it comes.
G C A :|| (8x)
I wish that I could still be
there.
I wish I did not have to go.
Maybe “had to”'s a strong way
to put it,
but where your heart leads you
must go.
As you grow older you'll find out
this life's not as clear as you'd
like;
sometimes your heart can get
broken
just from trying to do what feels
right.
I think about you quite often,
of all of those times that we
shared;
though there's a great distance
between us,
part of you is with me
everywhere.
I think of your laugh, and I
smile.
I smile, and then I cry.
You're one of this world's
greatest treasures;
I'm so glad that you're part of
my life.
So
I just want to tell you I love you.
I
just want to tell you I care.
Though
there's a great distance between us,
in
my heart you're always there.
