(John Farrar)
|
We never really had the chance to let each other know
|
We never really had the time to let our feelings show
|
Small talk kept us going
|
When the only words to say
|
Were how I long to hold you
|
Pride locked the words away
|
|
I never had the confidence to think that you could care
|
I never looked into your eyes to see if love was there
|
I talked it over with myself and silently agreed
|
Your heart was in a high place unreachable to me
|
|
I waited too long for a sign from you
|
Reached for a line that you never threw
|
Small talk and pride kept us from getting together
|
Now there's never a day you're not on my mind
|
Saying the words we could never find
|
Small talk and pride took you from my life forever
|
|
I'll never hold the cards again
|
To win a love so real
|
I know I'd gamble everything
|
But Mistress Fate won't deal
|
I just have to be content to learn by my mistakes
|
Our hearts were just a breath away
|
Now they're far enough to break
|
|
I waited too long for a sign from you
|
Reached for a line that you never threw
|
Small talk and pride kept us from getting together
|
Now there's never a day you're not on my mind
|
Saying the words we could never find
|
Small talk and pride took you from my life forever
