I have some words I'd like to say
But they seem to take my breath away.
With each new huff I start anew
But then my gaze does turn to you.
My lungs collapse with nervous might
And as I smile, my heart takes flight.
I reach and reach but stumble still
And soon I tumble down the hill.

I have some words I'd like to say
But they seem to take my breath away.
With each new day comes another chance
To ask you for a simple dance.
We'll not go slow, nor will we rush
And by the end, I swear you'll blush.
For by the end, our lips will meet
And you'll feel warmth down to your feet.

I had some words I wanted to say
And yes, they took my breath away.
But I've found courage inside my heart
So this is where I chose to start.
When you're around, my mind goes blank
It's your infectious smile I've got to thank.
So here's those words I wanted to say:
It's you who takes my breath away.
