I Don't Know What to Say Other Than I Love You




Every day that passes
adds another century
to the time that I wish
I could spend with you

So I'm sending you a warning
to get rid of me now
'cause every time we kiss
I'm even more in love



My love is growing
and I don't know what to say
other than I love you



You've got a sympathetic smile
and a pretty little face
and I'm the only one who knows
you've got the world in your eyes

and every time you laugh
it gives me whole new strength
I'd fight off the world
just to keep this alive



my love is growing
and I don't know what to say
other than I love you



I walk into your room
pulled in by your eyes
sunscreened smiles
and a comforting hand

a suitcase on the floor
waiting to be filled
You ask me to lie down
and dream away the night

I want to grow old
right here in this room
waking up every morning
with a girl like you


my love is growing
and I don't know what to say
other than I love you

Author notes

This is a song that I wrote to tell my girlfriend that I love her. She's not on AllPoetry, but I played this for her, and she burst into tears. It was the first time that I have ever seen her cry.

    Awesome!

    I am glad that you gave finally added something to Allpoetry. I am even more glad that I randomly checked your page to see that you have added something. This is wondering. I like the simplicity of some of the description becauce it gave my mind plenty of room to picture the actions in the song happening. This is wonderful. You and Kate, your togetherness, it's wonderful as well. Good luck. BYE!

      So I have gone on AP a couple times in the last few days. I saw this comment, and thought it was really funny, since you call Kate a bitch all the time!

      I just thought that was hella funny.
