Takes
Lyrics
[verse]
There's a word I keep inside my heart each day
Something soft I never learned to say
When you're near I lose the words I planned
And I'm left just holding empty hands
[chorus]
You're the one thing I hold closer than the rest
Quietly, you're the reason I feel blessed
If I could just find a way to let you see
How much your love has come to mean to me
[verse]
Friends will come and seasons drift on by
Still I'll watch you underneath this sky
Wishing I could tell you what I feel
Wondering if any of this is real
[chorus]
You're the one thing I hold closer than the rest
Quietly, you're the reason I feel blessed
If I could just find a way to let you see
How much your love has come to mean to me
[bridge]
Maybe I'm a fool to keep it all so quiet
Maybe I should speak before the moment's by it
But every time I try, the words get lost somehow
So I'll just keep on treasuring you now
[chorus]
You're the one thing I hold closer than the rest
Quietly, you're the reason I feel blessed
If I could just find a way to let you see
How much your love has come to mean to me
