Words I Can't Say

Sometimes I try to say

But the words don't seem to come my way

I reach for you in the silence of the night

But all I touch is the edge of light

I've made mistakes I can't undo

And every one just leads me back to you

If I could find the right line today

You'd hear my heart in every word I'd say

I'm holding on to what we had

Even though it hurts so bad

I still see your face in every dream

You're the fire, you're everything

Please believe me when I say

I never meant to lose your faith

If love is a crime, I'll take the blame

I'd walk through fire, through all the pain

There's so much I need to say

But the words just fade away

Oh, my heart keeps screaming your name

In the words I can't say

The nights are long, the days are slow

I count the hours till your shadow shows

I replay moments like a song

Trying to find where we went wrong

I know I hurt you, that much is true

But I'd give my soul to make it up to you

If love could speak, it would beg you to stay

But I'm trapped inside these words I can't say

I'm standing here with open hands

A broken heart that understands

Every tear I've cried's for you

Every dream's still painted blue

Please believe me when I say

I never meant to lose your faith

If love is a crime, I'll take the blame

I'd walk through fire, through all the pain

There's so much I need to say

But the words just fade away

Oh, my heart keeps screaming your name

In the words I can't say

Maybe someday you'll see the truth

That every song I write is about you

No matter where the river flows

My heart will follow where you go

Please believe me when I say

You're the light that guides my way

If love's a storm, I'll stand in the rain

To feel your touch again

There's so much I need to say

But the words just slip away

Oh, I love you more each day

In the words I can't say

Sometimes I try to say

But the words don't seem to come my way

Still I hope you feel my love today

In the words I can't say
