"Words (Don't Mean A Thing)" lyrics

How come when your near me
I have trouble speaking
It's like I always trip on my tongue
So I can never tell you
The things I think about you
There must be a million words but I'll be happy with just one

Are you feeling this connection?
'Cause I'm so tongue tied, tongue tied

But I could take you in my arms
Show you what I'm all about
I could give you just one kiss and you'll know (and you'll know)
If only I could make you see
All the things you do to me
'Cause we both know the words don't mean a thing
The words don't mean a thing
The words don't mean a thing

When I see you in the corridor
I stare down at the floor
Just so I don't have to look so dumb
I'm tying myself in knots but no they won't come undone
You don't even know me but I'm stuck under your thumb
So where do we go from here

How do I get your attention
'Cause I'm so tongue tied, tongue tied

But I could take you in my arms
Show you what I'm all about
I could give you just one kiss and you'll know (and you'll know)
If only I could make you see
All the things you do to me
'Cause we both know the words don't mean a thing
The words don't mean a thing
The words don't mean a thing

It's here right on the tip of my tongue
A million words but I just need one, one, one, one

But I could take you in my arms
Show you what I'm all about
I could give you just one kiss and you'll know (and you'll know)
If only I could make you see
All the things you do to me
'Cause we both know the words don't mean a thing
The words don't mean a thing (are you feeling this connection)
The words don't mean a thing (how can I get your attention)

Are you feeling this connection
'Cause I'm so tongue tied, tongue tied
