A/N: I've got to listen to recent songs...
"I love you, Marlene," Skipper said to her. While other girls would swoon about that, Marlene looked upset. This confused Skipper. "What's wrong, Dollface?"
"It's just that you ALWAYS say that. How am I suppose to know it's true?"
"What else am I suppose to do?" Marlene sighed.
"Show me," She said... "Then I'd know!"
Saying I love you
Is not the words I want to hear from you
It's not that I want you
Not to say, but if you only knew
How easy it would be to show me how you feel
More than words is all you have to do to make it real
Then you wouldn't have to say that you love me
'Cos I'd already know
"But why can't I just say 'I love you'? That's enough in my book!"
"You don't get it!" She yelled. "I stay up at night and wonder if everything you say is true! It hurts Skipper, it really does!"
"But... Marlene,"
" What if I was to leave Skipper? You'd be too late to do anything then,"
What would you do if my heart was torn in two
More than words to show you feel
That your love for me is real
What would you say if I took those words away
Then you couldn't make things new
Just by saying I love you
More than words
"What am I SUPPOSE to DO?" Skipper was feeling exasperated.
"SHOW me, Skipper!" She wiped her eyes. "Hold me once in a while. Hug me, embrace me! Do everything boyfriends are suppose to do!"
Now I've tried to talk to you and make you understand
All you have to do is close your eyes
And just reach out your hands and touch me
Hold me close don't ever let me go
More than words is all I ever needed you to show
Then you wouldn't have to say that you love me
'Cos I'd already know
Skipper scrunched his face. Marlene took that as disapproval and started to walk away. "I guess you never-" Skipper ran up to her and hugged her from behind.
"When I say something, I mean it. But if you really want me to..." He rubbed his beak on her neck. "I'll give you more than words,"
What would you do if my heart was torn in two
More than words to show you feel
That your love for me is real
What would you say if I took those words away
Then you couldn't make things new
Just by saying I love you
More than words
