Lyrics

Your love is magical, that's how I feel
But I have not the words here to explain
Gone is the grace for expressions of passion
But there are worlds and worlds of ways to explain
To tell you how I feel

But I am speechless, speechless
That's how you make me feel
Though I'm with you I am far away
And nothing is for real

When I'm with you I am lost for words
I don't know what to say
My head's spinning like a carousel
So silently I pray

Helpless and hopeless
That's how I feel inside
Nothing's real, but all is possible
If God is on my side

When I'm with you I am in the light where I cannot be found
It's as though I am standing in the place called Hallowed Ground

Speechless, speechless
That's how you make me feel
Though I'm with you I am far away
And nothing is for real

I'll go anywhere
And do anything
Just to touch your face
There's no mountain high
I cannot climb
I'm humbled in your grace

Speechless, speechless
That's how you make me feel
Though I'm with you I am lost for words
And nothing is for real

Speechless, speechless
That's how you make me feel
Though I'm with you I am lost for words
And nothing is for real

Speechless, speechless
That's how you make me feel
(You're always on my mind)
Though I'm with you I am lost for words
And nothing is for real
Speechless

Your love is magical, that's how I feel
But in your presence I am lost for words
Words like—like "I love you"

Reflection

Often regarded as the greatest entertainer of all time, Michael Jackson was an American singer, songwriter, and dancer.

Michael Jackson was inspired to pen the lyrics of Speechless after having a water balloon fight with some children in Germany. The lyrics of the song is a ballad.

Jackson's Speechless is the story of a person who has fallen in love beyond expression. The protagonist is just too overwhelmed to express exactly how he feels to his lover who seems to be faraway.
