Madness How Can I Tell You Lyrics

Communication is a skill you must acquire
It will help you through your life
It is essential
You have to walk into this world with your head held high
Be filled with child
Don't become crystalline
You're gonna have to swim with the molecules

How can I tell you
You have to open up your heart
How can I tell you
Be honest from the very start
How I feel
Make a stand for what is true
Try to be decent in all that you do
How can I tell you
You've got to give to get support
How can I tell you
A little effort and a lot more thought
How I feel
Check the wonder in all that you see
You've got to get loving unconditionally

You're gonna have to walk that road
You're gonna bear some heavy loads
You'll make mistakes and you'll come close
You're gonna get hurt by the one you love most
You're gonna have to take some pain
Accept the loss to live again
Forgive yourself and you'll be free There's more to love than just loving you see

How can I tell you
The laughter on a crowded bus
How can I tell you
Making space when you're being crushed
How I feel
A letter I received from you
A hug and a kiss when you're feeling blue
How can I tell you
The last chocolate in the box
How can I tell you
A pair of mittens and some cotton socks
How I feel
I'll make a fire when you are cold
Don't worry darling
I'll love you when you grow old

How can I tell you
Six candles on your birthday cake
How can I tell you
A Christmas card that I helped you make
How I feel
When you ran in your first race
The time I stuck ice cream in your face

How can I tell you
The last chocolate in the box
How can I tell you
A pair of mittens and some cotton socks
How I feel
I'll make a fire when you are cold
Don't worry darling
I'll love you when you grow old
