《More Than I Can Say》，是杰瑞·埃利森（Jerry Allison）和桑尼·库尔梯斯（Sonny Curtis）创作的，产生于50年代初期，开始是由Bobby Vee 在1961年唱红的，后来Leo Sayer于1980将之重新诠释。此曲因此成为80年代恋情男女吐露新生的抒情经典，1980年分别获得金唱片奖第二名、美国排行榜5周亚军、成人抒情榜3周冠军和英国榜亚军单曲。虽是不同的唱法和编曲配乐，两种版本其实各有千秋，唯前一版本如今少见就是。
Oh oh yea yea
I love you more than I can say
I'll love you twice as much tomorrow
Oh love you more than I can say
Oh oh yea yea
I miss you every single day
Why must my life be filled with sorrow
Oh love you more than I can say
don't you know I need you so
Tell me please I gotta know
Do you mean to make me cry
Am I just another guy
Oh oh yea yea
I love you more than I can say
I'll love you twice as much tomorrow
Oh love you more than I can say
I love you more than I can say
I love you more than I can say
歌词大意：
哦，我爱你在心口难开。我对你的爱一天胜似一天。哦，我爱你在心口难开。
哦，我每天都想着你，为什么我的生活必须充满着忧愁？哦，我爱
你在心口难开。
你难道不知道我如此需要你吗？请告诉我，我必须知道。你是不是有意伤害我？或者我只不过是你所有追求者中的其中一个而已呢？
