Joel, Billy - If I Only Had The Words (To Tell You) Lyrics
If I only had the words to tell you
If you only had the time to understand
Though I know it wouldn't change your feelings
And I know you'll carry on the best you can.
If you only knew how hard it is to say
When the simple lines have all been taken
And the radio repeats them ev'ry day.
If I never find the song to sing you
If you always find it hard to comprehend
Well, you know there wouldn't be much meaning
If I had to sing those tired words again.
Life goes on and on
But if we try we can be sure.
If I only had the words to tell you
If you only had the time to understand
But I only have these arms to hold you
And it's all that you can ask of any man.
La la la la, la la la la
If I only had the words to tell you
If you only had the time to understand
Oh, but I only have these arms to hold you
And it's all that you can ask of any man.

If I only had the words to tell you
If you only had the time to understand
Though I know it wouldn't change your feelings
And I know you'll carry on the best you can.
If I only had the urge to tell you
If you only knew how hard it is to say
When the simple lines have all been taken
And the radio repeats them ev'ry day.
If I never find the song to sing you
If you always find it hard to comprehend
Well, you know there wouldn't be much meaning
If I had to sing those tired words again.
Life goes on and on
And tonight will soon be gone
But if we try we can be sure.
If I only had the words to tell you
If you only had the time to understand
But I only have these arms to hold you
And it's all that you can ask of any man.
La la la la, la la la la
If I only had the words to tell you
If you only had the time to understand
Oh, but I only have these arms to hold you
And it's all that you can ask of any man

Love this song!! Brings memories from my childhood in 1985!!!

I have found myself falling deeply in love with a friend who's going through a divorce. The chemistry is so there, but I know he's not ready. I just wanna text him this song.
I hope you guys found each other <3

Great song by a great singer. So true it makes me want to cry.
Stole this cellphone you say LOVE LOVE LOVE
NOW MAMA IS LOVE
YOUR CHOSEN TO LOVE LOVE LOVE
Man people are commenting on this from awhile ago jeez. I just listen the albums I own not use YouTube usually such as piano man, River of dreams, the bridge, etc.
Also can't wait for 25th of may as I'm going to see him live! And I might be seeing him for his 50th show in December. I'm going to miss him when he stops
Billy has the words!
Yes he certainly does xxx
One of my top 3 Billy Joel songs
excellent
This is one of my favorite songs by Billy over here :-)
Thank you
Does Billy's voice sound still this good?
Not as good, but still damn fucking good for his age
If I only had a biiiiird to sell you
If you only had a dime inside your hand
Though I know I'd rearraaaange your ceilings
And I know you're wary of a large pecan
This will never get old
I don't get it
I would do anything to sing this song to a actual living female I had a crush on
TELL HER ABOUT IT
+WhakkaThwakka.Net TELL HER EVERYTHING YOU FEEL
Batman Theorist 1223 I’m a girl and I k ow she would love it
Batman Theorist 1223 actually a guy sent me this song and he said this is how he felt and it cute
Imo, this is the weakest track on an otherwise great album. No need to insult me or put me down for saying that it's just my opinion.
IMO I have to disagree
There's nothing quite like having a crush on someone! How I wish I could sing this song directly to a girl who I had a crush on. It's exactly what I would want her to know, and I would really hope the passion Billy Joel puts into this song is exactly how she would interpret it! Billy Joel really is a musical genius!
TELL HER ABOUT IT
TELL HER EVERYTHING YOU FEEL
GIVE HER A REASON TO ACCEPT THAT YOUR FOR REAL
exactly!!
Isn't that nice xxx
My favourite! Xxx
Wonderful song
I love this Song!!!!
