Cliche

Fish

I've got a reputation of being a man with a gift of words 
A romantic, poetic type or so they say 
But I find it hard to express the way I feel about you 
Without getting involved in the old cliches
In the old cliches, it's the old cliche
This song's begun so many times but never 
In a way that you wont consider to be an old cliche
I want to say that I need you, I miss you when you're away
And how it seemed like fate - o here we go - the same old cliches 
It's the same old cliche 
It's not that I'm embarrassed or shy, well, you know me too well 
But I want to make this song special in a way that you can tell 
That it's solely for you and for nobody else 
For my best friend, my lover, when I need help - cliche - cliche

Everything I want to say to you is wrapped up in an old cliche 

I'd waited so long to find you, I'd been through the heartbreak and the pain 
But of course you already know that cos you've been throught the same. 
That's why I'm trying to say with my deepest sincerity 
That's why I'm finding it comes down to the basic simplicities 
The best way is with an old cliche 
It's simply the best way is with an old cliche 
Always the best way is with an old cliche 
I'll leave it to the best way, it's an old cliche 
I love you.
