Saying i love you it not the word i want to hear from you

“More Than Words” is a single from Extreme’s 1990 album Extreme II: Pornograffiti. It was written by Nuno Bettencourt & Gary Cherone.

According to Nuno Bettencourt, the song is described as a warning that the phrase ‘I love you’ was becoming meaningless, stating:

People use it so easily and so lightly that they think you can say that and fix everything, or you can say that and everything’s OK. Sometimes you have to do more and you have to show it— there’s other ways to say ‘I love you.’

It began with Bettencourt strumming an acoustic guitar one day on Cherone’s porch in Malden, MA. He played it for Cherone who was then inspired to scribble down the phrase “More than words is all you have to do”. Bettencourt then insisted he finish the lyrics right then.

Originally their record label wanted them to turn the song into a power ballad, asking them to add drums and a guitar solo like Motley Crue’s “Home Sweet Home” and Ozzy Osbourne’s “Mama I’m Coming Home” but the band refused. While the band recorded it in the studio, Skid Row frontman Sebastian Bach heard the song and predicted it would be ‘huge’ and become ‘a number one’.

Initially the record company resisted Bettencourt’s request to release “More Than Words” as the album’s third single. Its first two singles had made little impact in the US, so their label wanted them to begin work on their next album. However, the band informed the label that their audiences drowned them out by singing along to the song whenever they played it in concert. The band kept insisting that it be sent to radio, so to pacify them the label tested the song in one radio market – where it quickly became the most-requested song on the station. A test was done in another market and the same thing happened, so the label relented and officially released it as single.

The song became a number-one hit, topping the Billboard Hot 100 for a week in June of 1991 and was certified Gold by the RIAA. It also topped the charts in Canada, the Netherlands & New Zealand, and reached #2 in the UK. As soon as “More Than Words” was an international hit, the record company released the other acoustic track from the album “Hole Hearted” as the fourth single to cash in on their recent success – and it reached the top 5 in the US.

Being a hard rock band that scored two top 5 acoustic hits was both a blessing and curse for the band, the downside being Bettencourt felt it made the record company want to make them into something they were not:

Everybody got really greedy — the same people who thought an acoustic song would never work in the first place. And then on the next album, they were like, ‘Where’s an acoustic song?’ But we weren’t an acoustic band. I wrote a song on a porch and it became a hit. I wasn’t gonna try to write ‘More Than Words Part Two.’ It just doesn’t work that way.

Extreme is sometimes labelled as a one-hit wonder despite the fact their next single “Hole Hearted” reached #4 in the US and #12 in the UK.

In 2014, Bettencourt shared with the Straits Times how “More Than Words” created two distinct types of fans of the band:

People who just like that song are not Extreme fans, they just like ‘More Than Words’. That’s cool, that’s nice, but the actual truth fans know is we’re more than that song.

Saying I love you
Is not the words I want to hear from you
It’s not that I want you
Not to say, but if you only knew

How easy it would be to show me how you
feel
More than words is all you have to do to
make it real
Then you wouldn’t have to say that you love
me
‘Cause I’d already know

What would you do if my heart was torn in
two
More than words to show you feel
That your love for me is real
What would you say if I took those words
away
Then you couldn’t make things new
Just by saying I love you

More than words

Now I’ve tried to talk to you and make you
understand
All you have to do is close your eyes
And just reach out your hands and touch me
Hold me close don’t ever let me go
More than words is all I ever needed you to
show
Then you wouldn’t have to say that you love
me
‘Cause I’d already know
***
«Я люблю тебя» —
Это не то, что я хочу от тебя услышать,
Не то, чтобы я не хотел,
Чтобы ты их произносила, но если бы ты
только знала,
Как легко ты могла бы показать мне свои
чувства.
Тебе придется дать мне больше, чем
слова,
И тогда не придется повторять, что ты
меня любишь,
Я и так буду знать.

Чтобы ты сделала, если бы мое сердце
рвалось на части?
Одних слов не достаточно, чтобы доказать,
Что твоя любовь ко мне искренна.
Что, если бы я лишил тебя слов,

И слова «Я люблю тебя»
Ничего бы не меняли?

Больше, чем слова

Я пытался поговорить с тобой, объяснить,

Что тебе надо просто закрыть глаза,
Протянуть руку и дотронуться до меня,
Сжать меня в объятиях и не отпускать.
Мне от тебя всегда было нужно больше,
чем слова.
И тогда не придется повторять, что ты
меня любишь,
Я и так буду знать.

More than words

Saying I love you,
Is not the words,
I want to hear from you,
It’s not that I want you,
Not to say but if you only knew,
How easy,
It would be to show me how you feel

More than words,
Is all you have to do,
To make it real,
Then you wouldn’t have to say,
That you love me,
Cause I’d already know

What would you do,
If my heart was torn in two
More than words to show you feel,
That your love for me is real
What would you say,
if I took those words away
Then you couldn’t make things new,
Just by saying I love you

It’s more than words,
It’s more than what you say,
It’s the things you do,
Oh yeah,
It’s more than words,
It’s more than what you say,
It’s the things you do,
Oh yeah

Now that I’ve tried to,
Talk to you and make you understand,
All you have to do,
Is close your eyes,
And just reach out your hands,
And touch me,
Hold me close don’t ever let me go

More than words,
Is all I ever needed you to show,
Then you wouldn’t have to say,
That you love me,
Cause I’d already know

What would you do,
If my heart was torn in two
More than words to show you feel,
That your love for me is real,
What would you say,
If I took those words away,
Then you couldn’t make things new, (no no)
Just by saying I love you…

Больше чем слова

Говоришь “Я люблю тебя”,
Не слова
Я хочу услышать от тебя,
Дело не в том, что я хочу тебя,
Без слов, если бы ты только знала,
Как легко,
Было бы показать мне, как ты чувствуешь

Больше чем слова, —
Это все, что ты должна сделать,
Чтобы это было реально,
И тогда тебе бы не пришлось сказать,
Что ты любишь меня,
Потому что я бы уже это знал

Что сделала бы ты,
Если бы мое сердце было разбито
Больше чем слова, чтобы показать, как ты чувствуешь,
Что твоя любовь ко мне – настоящая,
Что бы ты сказала,
Если бы я забрал эти слова?
Тогда ты не смогла бы быть оригинальной,
Просто сказав “Я тебя люблю”

Это больше чем слова,
Это больше, чем то, что ты говоришь,
Это то, что ты делаешь,
О, да,
Это больше чем слова,
Это больше, чем то, что ты говоришь,
Это то, что ты делаешь,
О, да

Сейчас, когда я уже попытался
Поговорить с тобой и заставить тебя понять,
Все, что ты должна сделать –
Это закрыть глаза,
И просто протянуть руки
И дотронуться до меня,
Держать меня близко и никогда не отпускать

Больше чем слова –
Это все, что я хотел, чтобы ты показала,
Тогда тебе не пришлось бы сказать,
Что ты меня любишь
Потому что я уже знал бы это

Что сделала бы ты,
Если бы мое сердце было разбито
Больше чем слова, чтобы показать, как ты чувствуешь,
Что твоя любовь ко мне – настоящая,
Что бы ты сказала,
Если бы я забрал эти слова?
Тогда ты не смогла бы быть оригинальной,
Просто сказав “Я тебя люблю”
