Those Three Words - Taxi

I’m a man, I’m not so hard to understand

I’m actually quite simple, from my head down to my toes

I don’t hide whatever’s on my mind

Except when it comes to those three words.

Yeah, those

You wonder why you don’t hear it as much as you want

But just because I don’t say it, it doesn’t mean that I don’t

That I don’t!

And know that I…

I try so hard, but I can’t make it through

I guess it’s not something men can easily do

Still I will try to whisper it to you: I lo…

I’m a man, my DNA’s not my friend

When it comes to those three words, you see

I can bet that this was also the case

For a lot of guys before me

All my ancestors had to hunt, had to fight, had to invent

The wheel and the bulb and the TV

and the leather jacket with spikes and all the gear

So they didn’t have time to say the words

every woman loves to hear

But know that I…

I’m begging you, just give me

As much credit as you would give a dog,

A dog that loves you even if he doesn’t talk to you!

If you wanna feel those butterflies

Please, just look into my eyes!

Still I will try to whisper it to you: I lo …

Man, that’s tough!

Still I will try to whisper it to you: I love you!
