Cliche — текст песни (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 with the old cliches.
In the old cliches, it`s the old cliches.
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 cliches.
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 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 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.
