Tonights the night I'm gonna make my true Confession
I got my courage up there's nothing That can keep me down now
my words Get tangled up in good intentions
but I know What my heart wants to say

I've got to Let you know for worse or for better
there's A hundred ways that i could show you But it wouldn't matter
it's time to tell you And I'll try to keep it simple
I know what You want to hear
why do I forget every time you Get near

right on the tip of my tongue
right on the tip of my tongue
right on the tip of my tongue
on the tip of my tongue

look in my eyes and Tell me what do you see
there's a message That I'm sending and I hope you recieve
my Words get tangled up in good intentions
you'll Know what my heart wants to say
you'll Know what my heart's trying to say

right on the tip of my tongue
right on the tip of my tongue
right on the tip of my tongue
three Little words that I want to say
you'll never Know if you walk away

I know what You want to hear
why do I forget every time you Get near

right on the tip of my tongue
right on the tip of my tongue
right on the tip of my tongue
three Little words that I want to say
you'll never Know if you walk away
