There will be no high notes on this song
No need to impress anyone
I simply want to say
I simply want to say
I simply want to say
I love you!

There will be no riffs, no trills, no soprano cascades
No melodies or harmonies overplayed
I simply want to say
I simply want to say
I simply want to say
I love you!

No! No! No! They all say,
Don’t! Don’t! Don’t! dare do it that way
Oh! Oh! Oh! I need to say it this way
No fanfares, no parades,
No games that lovers play
I simply want to say
I simply want to say
I simply want to say
I love you!

In native tongues or foreign tongues
Spoken softly or sung
I simply want to say
I simply want to say
I simply want to say
I love you!
I love you!
I love you!
I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you!
I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you!
Oh especially you.
I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you!
You know you really ought to give yourself a big hug.
I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you!
I simply want to say
I love you!
Yeah, that was enjoyable.
