What I Wanted to Say
[Verse 1]
I should've done something
Again, I did nothing
Watched us separate
What should I do now?
Run and chase you down
I can't hesitate

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause all I wanted to say is something real
All I want you to know is how I feel
All I wanted to give was my heart
But I'm stuck here at the start

[Chorus]
It's on the tip of my tongue, but I'm still afraid
Sometimes the only things words do is get in the way
Sometimes the easiest things are the hardest to say
But I don't wanna lose you, drive you away
Don't wanna confuse you, I need you to stay
Only wish you knew what I wanted to say
Only wish you knew what I wanted to say

[Verse 2]
My hands are shakin'
I'm yours for the takin'
Don't you hesitate
Please just do one thing
One small sign, something
Let's jump off the edge
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause all I want you to say is something real
All I wanted to know is how you feel
All I want you to give is your heart
But we're stuck here at the start

[Chorus]
It's on the tip of my tongue, but I'm still afraid
Sometimes the only things words do is get in the way
Sometimes the easiest things are the hardest to say
But I don't wanna lose you, drive you away
Don't wanna confuse you, I need you to stay
Only wish you knew what I wanted to say
Only wish you knew what I wanted to say

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
It's on the tip of my tongue, but I'm still afraid
Sometimes the only things words do is get in the way
Sometimes the easiest things are the hardest to say
But I don't wanna lose you

[Post-Chorus]
I don't wanna lose you
No, I don't wanna lose you (I don't wanna lose you)
No, I don't wanna lose you (Mm)
[Outro]
I should've done something, I should've done something
I should've done something, but I never wanted to
I should've done something, I should've done something
I should've done something, but I never wanted to
(But I don't wanna lose you, drive you away)
I don't wanna lose you
(Only wish you knew what I wanted to say)
No, I don't wanna lose you (Mm)
(Wanted to say)
I should've done something, I should've done something
(Wanted to say)
I should've done something, but I never wanted to
I should've done something, I should've done something
(Wanted to say)
I should've done something, but I never wanted to
(Wanted to say)
What I wanted to say
What I wanted to say
What I wanted to say
What I wanted to say
