Words Get In The Way

Gloria Estefan & Miami Sound Machine

I realise you're seeing someone new

But I don't believe she knows you like I do

Your temperamental moody side

The one you always try to hide from me



But I know when you've got something on your mind

You've been trying to tell me for the longest time

But before you break my heart in two

There's something I've been trying to say to you



CHORUS

But the words get in the way

There's so much I want to say

But it's locked deep inside and if you look in my eyes

We might fall in love again

I won't even start to cry

Before we say goodbye

I'm trying to say I love you but the words get in the way



Your heart has always been an open book

But baby I don't even know you anymore

And despite the fact it's hurting me

I know the time has come to set you free



CHORUS

Repeat last line twice
