Read the story & lyrics of this song by Melanie Dekker:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
"I wanted to write a song for Valentines Day. There were flowers everywhere for sale. I realized my big love for flowers (especially unclose). I realized too then that NOTHING can say 'I Love you'...perhaps nothing can come close except for a song. Since I write lyrics, I found irony in trying to write 'words' that would say it all. They don't. And so...the song 'Speechless' was created!"

SPEECHLESS (c) 2003 by Melanie Dekker
-------------------
Something in Flowers
Reminds me of you
But giving you flowers
Just won’t do

There’s something in your light
That makes my world so bright
No star in the universe could stand up to

So I’ve been looking for something
That says everything
But words aren't big enough
To show my love for you

When I see you looking at me
You have got me speechless
Only you make me feel like this
You have got me speechless

Something in your ways
Smooths out bad days
When you fall on your face
you just stand up with grace

I will build castles, I will fight battles
I will do all I can to show my love for you

I am not the mushy kind (when I look into your eyes)
Still you get me every time (oh you get me every time)

Now you see me and I’m looking back at you
There is nothing I can say or do
Cause you have got me
Speechless
