Lyrics: 

How to tell a friend that you’ve
Fallen in love
Watching her sing on
The bow of a boat
How to move the muscles to open your mouth
To admit to what she’s been afraid of

I’m sorry
I know I’m only ordinary
I’m not a star
I apologize
I know this is an unpleasant surprise
When you need a star

Can they tell
When nobody makes a sound
When I’m lying, am I shaking
I’m right beside
the prophet who made up his mind
To keep quiet…
Stay silent

I’m sorry
I know I’m only ordinary
I’m not a star
I apologize
I know this is an unpleasant surprise…
When you need a star

And to love and not to be loved
Is the key
And to see and not to be seen…
That is me
And to move and not to be moved
Is to be free
And to love and not to be loved
Is the key

Watching her sing on the bow

Watching her sing on the bow of a boat

fixed

fixed.
that was copied from OMP's old song database

HOW to tell, a friend that

HOW to tell, a friend that you've fallen in love

it sounds like How to tell

it sounds like How to tell and how to move
