Say The Word

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.
