A rare genre-hop into some quasi- R & B, McKnight's first release in six years captures that first time you say those three magic words to another.

lyrics

I SAID I LOVE YOU
(words and music by Brian McKnight, Tragical Mith Music, ASCAP)

Moonlight can make me blind
Can make me say things I don’t wanna say
But I can’t take it back – I can’t take it back now

Moonlight can feel so right
Can make me do things I don’t wanna do
But I can’t take it back – I can’t take it back now

CHORUS
No one makes me feel like you do
I am not strong enough on my own
You make me strong enough to carry the world
I didn’t mean to say it so soon baby
Even though it’s only the truth to say it
I can’t take it back – I can’t take it back now

Moonlight can be sublime
Can make a lover out of my best friend
I won’t take it back – I won’t it take it back now

Daylight can be so bright
Now that you and me are side by side
Since you said it back – you said it back to me

CHORUS
