Things I Didn't Say
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". And when she asked me if I loved her, I just looked away. She's gone, and now I'm hearing All the things I didn't say. 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". 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. 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". I said, "Good-bye, good luck, God bless you" and she slipped away And left me here to live with all Songtexte The things I didn't say. 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". 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. Aus Songtexte Mania
