CRUMPLED UP NOTES (Prince/Jones)

Wrote it over and over again
Couldn’t get down what I wanted to say
I want to tell you how I really feel
But without a hundred clichés

“I love you forever”? No, scratch that
It’s all been said before
“You are my life”? No, not good.
I want to say so much more

But my trashcan is full
Of crumpled up notes
I just threw another one in
How can I say
Straight words from my heart
Without being lame again?

“You are my soul mate”?
Nope, not that, the phrase has been overused
“How I love your body!”
Nada, that would just make you amused

Clichés, clichés
Are there any other ways
To say what you mean to me?
Clichés, more clichés
Is there another phrase
For “You hold the master key”?

But my trashcan is full
Of crumpled up notes
I just threw another one in
How can I say
Straight words from my heart
Without being lame again?

Maybe those notes should stay in the trash
They are things you’ve already heard
Perhaps I can show you just how I feel
Cause actions speak louder than words

But my trashcan is full
Of crumpled up notes
I just threw another one in
How can I say
Straight words from my heart
Without being lame again?

Yes my trashcan is full
Of crumpled up notes
I just threw another one in
How can I say
Straight words from my heart
Without being lame again?

Oh those crumpled up notes
