Jerry Reed - I Love You What Can I Say Lyrics






You know some call me a poet he has a way with words they say
Hmm well why then when I try to tell you the way I feel
Do all the words just slip away
Or they come out sounding like dialogue from a Clark Gable movie
Well frankly my dear
Damn I just have so much inside that I want to know about
But it all means that I love you so what can I say

You bring a tear the poet's eye
And you are the rhyme I could not write
And you are love when the words slip away
And I love you what can I say

You see sometimes when sometimes words just aren't enough
I mean what's the word for that funny little shaky feelin' inside huh
Or that numb warm wonderful confusion when you touch me
A poet no no I'm not a poet
But if I were and if I had every word in the world at my command
My poem would still be I love you
I love you so what can I say

You are the song that I could not sing
And you are the picture I could not paint
And you're love when the words slip away
I love you what can I say
I love you what can I say yeah

And you are love when the words slip away
I love you what can I say
I love you what can I say
I love you woman I love you

    Thanks SO much for this upload! I've been aware of this song from the day it was released. Never understood why he never did more like this! Although I can still play it ... the only version of this I've ever had was on a 45 rpm. :-) Now I can listen to it any time I want to ... which will be often! R.I.P Jerry

    Its just hard to think, Jerry Reed, the Snow Man The Guitar Man, the legend. The man who wrote songs for Elvis, Johny cash, and gave us so many more, is gone.
    God bless the Reeds.
    Hopefully he can brighten up heaven with his music.

  27. 8.... ....

    Yes I agree. I just love the way his songs can feel like they are about you.
