Words I Couldn't Say

In a book, in a box, in the closet,
In a line in a song i once heard,
In a moment on a front porch late one June,
In a breath inside a whisper beneath the moon,
There it was at the tip of my fingers,
There it was on the tip of my tongue,
There you were and I had never been that far,
There it was the whole world wrapped inside my arms,
And I let it all slip away,
What do I do now that you're gone,
No back-up plan, no second chance,
And no one else to blame,
All I can hear in the silence that remains,
Are the words I couldn't say.
There's a rain that'll never stop falling,
There's a wall that I've tried to take down,
What I shouldn't said just wouldn't pass my lips,
So I held back and now we've come to this,
And it's too late now,
What do I do now that you're gone,
No back-up plan, no second chance,
And no one else to blame,
All I can hear in the silence that remains,
Are the words I couldn't say.
Are the words I couldn't say,
I should have found a way to tell you how I felt,
Now the only one I'm tellin' is myself,
What do I do now that you're gone,
No back-up plan, no second chance,
And no one else to blame,
All I can hear in the silence that remains,
Are the words I couldn't say.
What do I do, what do I say,
And no one else to blame,
All I can hear in the silence that remains,
Are the words I couldn't say.
