I Wanted to Tell You
by Francesco Bonifazi 
Genre: Singer-Songwriter
Lyrics
VERSE 1
A voice inside me is bursting to speak
But things just get in the way
Waiting for an unknown sign I seek
Looking for that perfect day
Looking for that perfect day
VERSE 2
I wanted to tell you this morning
I wanted to tell you last spring
For you I am longing and yearning
For you – my heart sings!
For you – my heart sings!
CHORUS
Why do I stumble when I start to speak?
Just as your breath brushes my cheek…
I avoid meeting your eyes?
How can I find the courage to fail?
Where and when seems to no avail (I will prevail or I will not bail )
But that’s what our love needs…
to… survive! Yes, indeed
{Whistling solo over Verse form}
VERSE 3
So I summon my will and dial your phone
In a shy and uncertain way
Secretly hoping that you won’t be at home
‘Cause I really don’t know what to say
I really don’t know what to say
VERSE 4
How can I ask – be me mine tonight?
When I’m totally frozen with fear
Seems like the time will never be right
Just hoping that you’ll still be near Hoping that you’ll still be near
Chorus 2
The lights are low at the movie show
My palms sweat as the tension grows
And the popcorn salt teases our lips
Where and when is here and now
Amazing I found the courage somehow
This love with be
Do or die! …You and I
{Short whistling solo}
VERSE 2 (Repeated)
I wanted to tell you this morning
I wanted to tell you last spring
For you I am longing and yearning
For you – my heart sings!
For you – my heart sings!
For you my heart sings
For you my heart sings
