"It's very difficult for me to say 'I love you' but to sing 'I love you' for me is easier"

This quote by Neil Diamond speaks with the trouble of revealing emotions verbally. It can be tough to state "I like you" to somebody, even if you feel it deeply. It can be difficult to put those feelings into words, and to express them in a way that conveys the depth of your feeling. However, singing "I love you" can be easier. Music has a way of conveying feeling that words alone can not. When you sing "I like you," you can put your heart and soul into it, and the individual you are singing to can feel the feeling behind the words. This quote speaks to the power of music to reveal emotion, and to the problem of revealing emotion verbally.
