I never cared for songs that say, "the stars shine in your eyes"
Or words like, "I can't live without you"
I thought that I had other ways to show you how I feel
I never felt the need to say those things about you
And I know that I'm so selfish
I don't always hear a sigh
And then I end up feeling helpless
When I know I've made you cry
And the stars shine in your eyes
Your smile lights up my day
And I can't live without you now
Oh, the words I couldn't say
I never cared for songs that say, "you're the moon in the sky at night"
Or words like, "you're my ev'rything"
Although I might have felt those sentiments at certain times
They were never words that I felt I could sing
And I never mean to hurt you
And if those words would heal the pain
And it did show you what you mean to me
I'd sing them time and time again
Oh, the stars shine in your eyes (you're my ev'rything)
Your smile lights up my day (you're the moon in the sky at night)
And I can't live without you now (ooh)
All the words I couldn't say
(You're my sunshine, babe)
(You're the moon in the sky at night)
(Ooh)
The stars shine in your eyes (you're my sunshine, babe)
Your smile lights up my day (you're the moon in the sky at night)
And I can't live without you now (ooh)
Words that I couldn't say
Oh, the stars shine in your eyes (you're my ev'rything)
Your smile lights up my day (you're the moon in the sky at night)
And I can't live without you now (ah)
All the words I couldn't say
