The Things I Didn’t Say

[Verse 1]
I didn't say "don't do it babe"
When she packed up to go
I didn't say "come back here honey
And try with me once more"
Ooo

[Pre-Chorus]
And when she asked me if I loved her
I just turned away
She's gone
And now I'm hearin'
All the things I didn't say

[Chorus]
I didn't say "I'm sorry, babe
"Cause half the fault was mine"
I didn't say "we'll work it out
'Cause all we need is love and faith and time"

[Post-Chorus]
I said "If that's the way you want it
I won't stand in your way"
She's gone
And now I'm hearing
All the things I didn't say

[Verse 2]
I didn't take her in my arms
And kiss away her tears
I didn't say "my life don't mean a thing
If you ain't here"

[Pre-Chorus]
I thought of all the many games
I'd be free to play
But all I do, is listen to
The things I didn't say

[Chorus]
I didn't say "take off your coat
I'll make some coffee and we'll talk"
I didn't say "the road away
Is such a long and lonely, endless walk"

[Post-Chorus]
I said "goodbye, good luck and God bless you"
Then she slipped away
And left me here
To live with all
The things I didn't say

[Outro]
And now I guess
She'll never hear
The things I didn't say
