What I Meant to Say

Last night I told a lie

When I told you I could say goodbye

Here in the light of day

What a crazy thing for me to say

Chorus:

What I meant to say was I love you

What's been killing me is I hurt you

What I didn't do was hold you

When I saw the teardrops fall

What I should have said was I'm sorry

What I should've said was forgive me

What I meant to say was what I didn't say at all

Last night I had a dream

You were really walking out on me

I woke up scared to death

Please forget about the things I said

Repeat Chorus

What I meant to say was what I didn't say at all

What I meant to say was what I didn't say at all
