Lyrics

She asked before she turned away "Is there anything you need to say" "I love you" might have worked But I never said a single word She never even made the front gate Before I knew I was too late Chorus: I waited 'till she was far enough away And then I cried I waited till I had all she could take I don't know why I wanted to say "I love you" At the perfect time And like a fool I waited till she said goodbye All the lines weren't quite right The cha nces that I let slip by All the times that I held out Are reasons she's not here right now All she really needed was to know All I had to do was let it show Repeat chorus
