Words I Couldn't Say lyrics

In a book in a box in the closet

In a line in a song I once heard

In a moment on a front porch late one june

In a breath inside a whisper beneath the moon

There it was at the tip of my fingers

There it was on the tip of my tounge

There you were and I had never been that far

There it was the whole world wrapped inside my arms

And I let it all slip away

[Chorus:]

What do I do now that you're gone

No back up plan no second chance

And no one else to blame

All I can hear in the silence that remains

Are the words I couldn't say

There's a rain that will never stop fallin'

There's a wall that I tried to take down

What I should have said just wouldnt pass my lips

So I held back and now we've come to this

And it's too late now

[Chorus:]

What do I do now that your gone

No back up plan no second chance

And no one else to blame

All I can hear in the silence that remains

Are the words I couldn't say

I should have found a way to tell you how I felt

Now the only one I'm tellin' to myself

[Chorus:]

What do I do now that your gone

No back up plan no second chance

And no one else to blame

All I can hear in the silence that remains

Are the words I couldn't say

What do I do, what do I say

And no one else to blame

All I can hear in the silence that remains

Are the words I couldn't say
