Oh, what I'd give for that wonderful phrase
To hear those three little words
That's all I'd live for the rest of my days
And what I feel in my heart, they tell sincerely
No other words can tell it half so clearly
Three little words, eight little letters

Three little words
Just three short words are all I need
Oh, what I'd give for that wonderful phrase
I would give so much just to hear those words
To hear those three little words
Hearing those words would mean everything to me
That's all I'd live for the rest of my days
My entire reason for living would be those words
And what I feel in my heart, they tell sincerely
My true feelings are communicated sincerely through those words
No other words can tell it half so clearly
No other words can communicate my feelings as clearly
Three little words, eight little letters
It's just three words, but eight letters long
Which simply mean I love you
Those three words simply express my love for you
