Let's enjoy with Soraya's version of "Words"

Lyrics

Words, don’t come easy, to me,
how can I find a way,
to make you see,
I love you
Words don’t come easy
Words, don’t come easy, to me,
this is the only way,
for me to sayI love you
Words don’t come easy

Well I’m just a music man,
melody’s so far my best friend
but my words are coming out wrong,
and I…I reveal my heart to you and
hope that you believe it’s true, cause

Words, don’t come easy, to me,
how can I find a way,to make you see,
I love you
Words don’t come easy
This is just a simple song,
that I’ve made for you on my own,
there’s no hidden meaning, you know,
when I…when I say I love you honey,
please believe I really do, cause

Words, don’t come easy, to me,
how can I find a way,to make you see,
I love you
Words don’t come easy
It isn’t easy,
Words don’t come easy….
Words, don’t come easy, to me,
how can I find a way,to make you see,
I love youWords don’t come easy
Don’t come easy to me,
this is the only way,for me to say,
I love you
Words don’t come easy
How can I find a way,to make you see,
I love youWords don’t come easy.

You tell me that you need me

Then you go and cut me down

But wait...

You tell me that you're sorry

Didn't think I'd turn around and say..

That it's too late to apologize, it's too late

I said it's too late to apologize, it's too late

I'd take another chance, take a fall, take a shot for you

And I need you like a heart needs a beat

(But that's nothing new)Yeah yeah
I loved you with a fire red, now it's turning blue

And you say

Sorry like an angel, heavens not the thing for you,

But I'm afraid

It's too late to apologize, it's too late

I said it's too late to apologizes, it's too late

Woahooo woah

I said it's too late to apologize, yeah yeah

I said it's too late to apologize, a yeah

I'm holding your rope

Got me ten feet off the ground..
