Why Can't I?

Why can't I tell you,
what you mean to me
I know what I want to say
But the words won't come out

It should be easy,
It should just come out
But it doesn't
So why can't I tell you,

Everytime I try to tell you,
I get scared and say the wrong stuff
I change the subject
Even when we are talking about us

So,why can't I say that you mean so much to me
Why can't I say I care for you
Why is it so hard to say these things
When it's so easy to write it down

Why can't I just say it?
Maybe it is fear
Part of it is
I am afraid of the response

What if I scare you and push you away?
What if I make you uncomfortable?
Or what if you feel the same way?
So what am I more scared of?

But that can't be all of it
Not the whole reason
there has to be something more
so why can't I figure it out

Lord give me the strength to say it
I don't want to let her get away
I feel that this one is special
I've never felt this way before

So Lord please help me
Help me to say what I need to say
Please Lord, I need you to help me say.....
That I need her too
