Less Than Four - Tokyo Rose

I’m trying hard not to say what I really feel

I wouldn’t dare to

Don’t want to scare you

The truth is I’m still afraid to say three words

So I sit tight-lipped

Let me try to spell it out

Not sure that I’ve got enough letters to express what I’m trying to say to you

I’m holding out for the triple word score

But I’m sure that nothing could be better than me and you

So baby for now it’s less than four

If I counted all the twenty-five cent words

I could use to woo you I’d be bankrupt and at a loss for words

If I only could work up the nerve to be honest and courageous

I wouldn’t have to spell it out

Not sure that I’ve got enough letters to express what I’m trying to say to you

I’m holding out for the triple word score

But I’m sure that nothing could be better than me and you

So baby for now it’s less than four

Your smile I do attest

I’d be hard-pressed to dare protest

Your wiles I must confess

Albeit reluctantly they get the best of me

Not sure that I’ve got enough letters to express what I’m trying to say to you

I’m holding out for the triple word score

But I’m sure that nothing could be better than me and you

So baby for now it’s less than four
