Lyrics:
Why haven't I told you

Oh, baby, I've told ev'ry little star
Just how sweet I think you are
Why haven't I told you

I've told ripples in a brook
Made my heart an open book
Why haven't I told you

Friends ask me am I in love
I always answer "Yes"
Might as well confess
If the answer's yes

Maybe you may love me too
Oh, my darling, if you do
Why haven't you told me
