LYRICS:

It's been a long, long time since I've memorized your face
It's been 4 hours now since I've wandered through your place
And when I sleep on your couch I feel very safe
And when you bring the blankets I cover up my face
I do............love you
I do............love you

And when you play guitar I listen to the strings buzz
The metal vibrates underneath your fingers
And when you crochet I feel mesmerized and proud
And I would say I love you by saying it out loud


Then, until the end:

E|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|

It's hard, so I won't say it at all
And I won't stay very long
But you are the life I needed all along, I thank you
You, as my brother, although that sounds dumb
But words are futile devices
