Cliche |
a romantic poetic type or so they say |
but I find it hard to express the way I feel about you |
without getting involved with the old cliches. |
In the old cliches, it’s the old cliches. |
This song’s begun so many times but never |
in a way that you wont consider to be an old cliche. |
I want to say that I need you, I miss you when you’re away. |
And how it seemed like fate — o here we go — the same old cliches. |
It’s the same old cliches. |
It’s not that I’m embarrassed or shy, well, you know me too well |
but I want to make this song special in a way that you can tell. |
That it’s solely for you and nobody else |
for my best friend, my lover, when I need help — cliche — cliche? |
Everything I want to say to you is wrapped up in an old cliche |
I’d waited so long to find you, I’d been through the heartbreak and pain, |
but of course you already know that cos you’ve been throught the same. |
That’s why I’m trying to say with my deepest sincerity |
that’s why I’m finding it comes down to the basic simplicities |
the best way is with an old cliche |
it’s simply the best way is with an old cliche |
always the best way is with an old cliche |
I’ll leave it to the best way, it’s an old cliche |
I love you. |
