A growing man, but still a child

With you, with you

Baby, I try for you

Sought a rose and caught a thorn

But every day our love is born

Anew, so true

Baby I try for you

Trying hard to soothe your soul

Sadness you just can't control

There are things you'll never know

'Cause I can't talk to you

Picture frame broken on the floor

And every day, I know there's more

To do, for you

Baby I try for you

See the dawn, hear the clock strike three

Another night of wait and see

For you, so true

Baby I try for you

Trying hard to hide your tears

Waiting all the lonely years

There are things you'll never hear

'Cause I can't talk to you

I can't talk to you

I can't talk to you

Though I try so hard to say

I can't talk to you

I can't talk to you

You know the words get in the way

If I could talk to you

I'd say I love you too

Tell you each and every day

I love you more than I can say

Years of hope ring a distant bell

A rusty coin in a wishing well

It's true, that's you

Baby I try for you

Coal with years make a diamond shine

Patience, tears and father time

Do to, it's true

Baby I try for you

Trying hard to soothe your soul

Sadness you just can't control

There are things you'll never know

'Cause I can't talk to you

I can't talk to you

I can't talk to you

Though I try so hard to say

I can't talk to you

I can't talk to you

You know the words get in the way

If I could talk to you

I'd say I love you too

Tell you each and every day

I love you more than I can say

I love you more than I can say
