Things I Should Have Said

(Tommy L. Day)

A lyric about the importance of communication in a relationship. The last thing we want to do is leave a loved one behind with regrets of important words unsaid. That’s what this song is about at its heart.

(v1) There are things I should have said But I couldn’t get them out of my own head If only I’d made up my mind but I just couldn’t decide, I was blind (Refrain) Should have let my feelings show How can I ever let you know All the things I should have said (v2) There are things I should have said But love became a stranger instead Promised we would work it out But our love was consumed by fear and doubt (Refrain) My heart filled with rain How could I ever stand the pain of All the things I should have said (Bridge) In the beginning, all was right We were happy morning, noon and night But every problem became a fight I put it out of mind and out of sight (v3) But there are things I should have said Love can’t last if you keep them in your head If you’ll say it’s not too late I know we can still rewrite our own fate (Refrain) If I could talk to you today I would promise to convey All the things I should have said (Bridge) In the beginning, all was right We were happy morning, noon and night But every problem became a fight I put it out of mind and out of sight (v3) But there are things I should have said Love can’t last if you keep them in your head If you’ll say it’s not too late I know we can still rewrite our own fate (Refrain) If I could talk to you today I would promise to convey All the things I should have said (Outro) Things I should have said Things I should have said
