What I Wanted To Say Lyrics
I should have done something again
I did nothing
Watched us separate
What should I do now
Run and chase you down
I can't hesitate
'cause all I wanted to say is something real
All I want you to know is how I feel
All I wanted to give was my heart
But I'm stuck here at the start
It's on the tip of my tongue but I'm still afraid
Sometimes the only thing words do is get in the way
Sometimes the easiest things are the hardest to say
But I don't wanna lose you, drive you away
Don't wanna confuse you, I need you to stay
Only wish you knew what I wanted to say
Only wish you knew what I wanted to say
My hands are shaking
I'm yours for the taking
Don't you hesitate
Please just do one thing
One small sign, something
Let's jump off the edge
'cause all I want you to say is something real
All I wanted to know is how you feel
All I want you to give is your heart
But we're stuck here at the start
It's on the tip of my tongue but I'm still afraid
Sometimes the only thing words do is get in the way
Sometimes the easiest things are the hardest to say
But I don't wanna lose you, drive you away
Don't wanna confuse you, I need you to stay
Only wish you knew what I wanted to say
Only wish you knew what I wanted to say
It's on the tip of my tongue but I'm still afraid
Sometimes the only thing words do is get in the way
Sometimes the easiest things are the hardest to say
But I don't wanna lose you
I don't wanna lose you
No, I don't wanna lose you
No, I don't wanna lose you
I should have done something
I should have done something
I should have done something but I never wanted to
I should have done something
I should have done something
I should have done something but I never wanted to
I don't wanna lose you
No, I don't wanna lose you
I should have done something
I should have done something
I should have done something but I never wanted to
I should have done something
I should have done something
I should have done something but I never wanted to
I did nothing
Watched us separate
What should I do now
Run and chase you down
I can't hesitate
All I want you to know is how I feel
All I wanted to give was my heart
But I'm stuck here at the start
Sometimes the only thing words do is get in the way
Sometimes the easiest things are the hardest to say
But I don't wanna lose you, drive you away
Don't wanna confuse you, I need you to stay
Only wish you knew what I wanted to say
Only wish you knew what I wanted to say
I'm yours for the taking
Don't you hesitate
Please just do one thing
One small sign, something
Let's jump off the edge
All I wanted to know is how you feel
All I want you to give is your heart
But we're stuck here at the start
Sometimes the only thing words do is get in the way
Sometimes the easiest things are the hardest to say
But I don't wanna lose you, drive you away
Don't wanna confuse you, I need you to stay
Only wish you knew what I wanted to say
Only wish you knew what I wanted to say
Sometimes the only thing words do is get in the way
Sometimes the easiest things are the hardest to say
But I don't wanna lose you
I don't wanna lose you
No, I don't wanna lose you
No, I don't wanna lose you
I should have done something
I should have done something but I never wanted to
I should have done something
I should have done something
I should have done something but I never wanted to
I don't wanna lose you
No, I don't wanna lose you
I should have done something
I should have done something
I should have done something but I never wanted to
I should have done something
I should have done something
I should have done something but I never wanted to

I feel like this song is about a girl who is best friends with a boy, but something happened and she is afraid she's losing him, like maybe he started dating someone else. She has feelings for him though but she never told him how she felt because she was scared of what he would say in return. And now she regrets not telling him the truth. I think she is still debating whether or not she should tell him she loves him.
omg!! im in that exact situation .. this song really speaks to me :) and im still debating =| love this song!!

This song reminded me a bit the song I posted above. Not so much in the music, but in the lyrical situation. You know, loving a friend, having so much to say but being afraid. We've all been there. Jason Mraz and Colbie are pretty similar musically, you should check it out!
