I Don't Know How

I wrote this for my hubby right before our wedding twenty years ago.

As I sang him to Jesus, I hope he heard the love I had for him.

---

I don't know how to tell you "I love you"

And get it to say all I want it to say.

I don't know how to tell you "I need you"

And show you what that all means

I don't know how to get you to understand

All that you are to me, do for me, are in me.

Words cannot express it

My lips cannot convey it

But my heart longingly tried to speak it

And will--everyday for a lifetime

Until your heart finally hears.
