Sometimes when I look at you
I don't know why you'd wait.
School girl in a little world
who learns everything late.
I've always had all the answers,
now I don't have a clue.
Some nights when the clouds are thick
and the wind starts to blow,
I stare out the window
wondering where I will go.
I turn the light out,
under the covers all I think of is you.
Just you.
Say the word
and I just might listen.
Say the word
and you might get your way.
Let me go if it's easier,
but say the word
and I might have to stay.
Meanwhile there's so many things
that we don't understand.
I don't know why I tremble
when you reach for my hand.
I didn't know how to love until you swept me
away.
So say the word
and I just might listen.
Say the word
and you might get your way.
Let me go if it's easier
but say the word
and I might have to stay.
I wanna love,
I wanna ride,
I wanna be the girl there by your side.
Just tell me when
Just tell me how,
tell me I'm ready now,
today.
Say the word
{Say the word}
and I just might listen.
{Say the word}
Say the word
and you might get your way.
{Whatever you say}
Let me go if it's easier
but say the word
and I might have to
stay.
