The day was wet and bleak
I was upset and weak
Running fast on a losing streak
Oh you always had a way with words

But when I heard you speak
And touched you on my cheek
I felt restored back to my peak
Since you always had a way with words

For the first time in many years
I had found Paradise
If I had to give it all to you
It was well worth the price

And all through that spring
You listened to me sing
And felt I gave you everything
You said I always had a way with words

You glowed in the moonlight
We talked long past the night
I thought my life would be all right
Oh we always had a way with words

A love can ebb and flow
Just like the ocean tide
And when the knot was tight
It somehow came untied

You make my blood run high
Then you bleed me dry
And leave me here to die
Oh you always had a way with words

If there were words I could say
To convince you to stay
I'd do it all to reach that day
If I only had a way with words
