Every time I say I love you,
I'm really trying to say so much more
than just those three little words;
I'm trying to express so many
wonderful feelings about you.
I'm trying to say that you
mean more to me than
anyone else in the world.
I'm trying to let you know that
I adore you and that I cherish
the time we spend together.
I'm trying to explain that I
want you and that I need you
and that I get lost in wonderful
thoughts every time I think about you.
And each time I whisper, "I love you,"
I'm trying to remind you
that you're the nicest thing
that has ever happened to me.
