When Words Fail
Shrek: The Musical
Princess, I, how's it going first of all? Good?
Uh, it's good for me too, I'm okay
I picked this flower
Right over there is where it grew
And I don't really like it
But it made me think of you
Because it's pretty
Is what I'm trying to say
And you are also pretty
But I like you anyway
So please accept this flower
With its petals and a stem
Which represent my feelings
And tells you how
Oh man, I'm in trouble
When words fail what will I do?
When words fail how will she know how I feel?
When words fail will I fail too?
Hello fair princess
Oh look the moon is out tonight
You remind me of that moon
Because it's big and bright
And by big I don't mean chubby
Obviously you're not fat
But your personality is biggish
Is what I meant by that
Sorry 'bout that fat thing
I'm on the hefty side myself
I have to blame the gene pool
Which reminds me of
Oh, where I am going with this?
When words fail what will I do?
When words fail how will she know how I feel?
When words fail will I fail too?
Do I have a snowball's chance?
Are my prospects just too grim?
I spent my life stuck in the mud
Now I'm crawling out on a limb
If words fail she'll know what I mean
If words fail she'll just take my hand
She sees me like no one else has
If words fail she'll understand, she'll understand
