I've got a reputation of being a
man with a gift of words
A romantic poetic type or so they
say
But I find it hard to express the
way I feel about you
Without getting involved with the
old cliches.
In the old cliches, it's the old
cliches.
This song's begun so many times
but never
In a way that you wont consider
to be an old cliche.
I want to say that I need you, I
miss you when you're away.
And how it seemed like fate - o
here we go - the same old cliches.
It's the same old cliches.
It's not that I'm embarrassed or
shy, well, you know me too well
But I want to make this song
special in a way that you can tell.
That it's solely for you and
nobody else
For my best friend, my lover,
when I need help - cliche - cliche?
Everything I want to say to you
is wrapped up in an old cliche
I'd waited so long to find you,
I'd been through the heartbreak and pain,
But of course you already know
that cos you've been throught the same.
That's why I'm trying to say with
my deepest sincerity
That's why I'm finding it comes
down to the basic simplicities
The best way is with an old
cliche
It's simply the best way is with
an old cliche
Always the best way is with an
old cliche
I'll leave it to the best way,
it's an old cliche
I love you.
