Things You Say

(Oh Baby yeah yeah)
Such a pleasure loving you,
It's all mine
I smile each day away
I feel better knowing you
Ooh you've got me thinking
it's better to give than take
I don't have to beg you to
You're so good to me
Carries me from day to day

I appreciate the things you do
ooh but there's one thing
I had to tell you boy
I dig your actions
but I love the things you say

Chorus
I listen to the things you say
ooh you're calling me oh wow
I listen to the things you say to me baby
In a poem or a card
Serenade my heart
I listen to the things you say
ooh you're calling me oh wow
I listen to the things you say to me baby
In a card or a song
Serenade me

Lovely letters come from you
at times, I know I don't deserve it
Any weather, you'll come through
You've got me gleaming
I feel more than I'm worthy
You're my treasure,
I'll take you over anything
that's pleasing on this earth

I appreciate the things you do
but there's one thing
I had to tell you
I dig your actions
but I love your words

Chorus

Every word that you say
makes the day much brighter
(sweet to my heart)
Melody that you play
I hear right away
and my heart is lighter
(sweet to my heart)
