I'm so scared of fucking this up

But I think that we should try

And I've always wanted this

So maybe tonight, yeah

You could come over

And I could look you in the eye

And say that I love you

And I want you to say it back

Yeah, I love you

And I want you to say it back

I know it's not perfect

But nothing really is

And I think it's worth it

For us to try something like this

And maybe we're assholes

And we'll drive our children mad

But I love you

And I want you to say it back

Yeah, babe, I just love you

And I want you to say it back

Wanna say that I miss you

And that I'm all choked up

I wanna say, "Don't talk to me

'Til you can give me what I want"

I wanna say that I'm happy

But we both know that I'm not

I wanna say, "I love you"

And I want you to say it back

Yeah, I just love you

And I want you to say it back

How long is too long

To wait for a love?

I've heard folks wait a lifetime

And it wasn't long enough

Babe, and it ain't no secret

That I'm pretty fucking dumb

So I say, "I love you"

And hope that you say it back

Yeah, I just love you

Even if you never say it back

Yeah, I will always love you

Say it back, back

I just love you

And I want you to say it back (Say it back)
