You are sleeping by my side Here across the miles we ramble Past where the road divides I wish I could tell you...but I just can't find the words I've never been good with my thoughts And even worse with my words But you read like familiar poetry That I have never heard... I wish I could tell you...but I just can't find the words So let's move across the ocean And pitch the tent stakes wide You be the one to come after me And I will be your bride... I wish I could tell you...but I just can't find the words I am all at once courageous I am all at once afraid It came over me like nightfall Like a freight train I can't seem to hold it in But I can't seem to run away You came in without notice And settled all around my heart Took up residence in all the places That were vacant and dark... I wish I could tell you...but I just can't find the words Springtime Indiana You are starting to wake And I am laden with the thoughts Of everything I mean to say I wish I could tell you, But I just can't find the words.
