Tongue Tied - Breakfast Club

I try to tell you but I

What I mean is that I

Every time I see you I’m tongue-tied

I try to tell you but I

What I mean is that I

When I see you

You’ve got me tongue-tied when you’re near

I get so tongue-tied whenever you are here

You’ve got me tongue-tied when you’re near

I get so tongue-tied whenever you are here

Hey I… I wanna walk up and say

You know I’ve been thinking of you

But afraid that you’d run away

You know I’ve been keeping my distance from you

Oh I know there must be a way

To talk about it to your face

But what’ll I do if you walk away

And what’ll I do if you laugh on my face

You’ve got me tongue-tied when you’re near

I get so tongue-tied whenever you are here

You’ve got me tongue-tied when you’re near

I get so tongue-tied whenever you are here

Hey I… I thought of calling you up

'Cause you know I’ve been lying awake

But I thought about it so long

You know there’s no way you’d still be awake

So I lie back and face the fact

And think about how to adapt

'Cause if I can’t find the words to say

I’m gonna get to you a different way

You’ve got me tongue-tied when you’re near

I get so tongue-tied whenever you are here

You’ve got me tongue-tied when you’re near

I get so tongue-tied whenever you are here

Hey I… I spend a good part of my day

With my dictionary

Looking up words to say

Words that will tell you about it

And make it all so plain

Hey I… I'm not gonna worry about it

I’ll take my time and decide what to say

But who knew that you were so near

And now I’m looking at your smiling face

Ooh I smile back… Oh I try anyway

But you don’t have a thing to say

This is a different kind of game that We’re playing

There is nothing that your smile doesn’t say

You’ve got me tongue-tied when you’re near

I get so tongue-tied whenever you are here

You’ve got me tongue-tied when you’re near

I get so tongue-tied whenever you are here

You’ve got me tongue-tied when you’re near

I get so tongue-tied whenever you are here
