I threw your picture in the fire
|
I watched you melt away
|
You turned to smoke, you burned my eyes
|
But I couldn't escape
|
My love for you remains
|
So why was I afraid?
|
|
When you were next to me,
|
Why didn't I tell you?
|
You were so good to me
|
Why didn't I just take back everything I said to you?
|
And take back everything I put you through?
|
Why didn't I tell you?
|
|
They said we never would survive
|
And I believed the lies
|
And then their words were verified
|
When I replaced my heart for your demise
|
But you were always on the side
|
|
When you were next to me,
|
Why didn't I tell you?
|
You were so good to me
|
Why didn't I just take back everything I said to you?
|
And take back everything I put you through?
|
Why didn't I tell you?
|
|
I love the way you understand,
|
The way you love,
|
The way you were when no one was looking
|
That you were beautiful and you were worth it all
|
You were everything I need
|
You captured my attention,
|
Did I mention I think you're beautiful, darling?
|
If I could tell you now,
|
I'd tell you how the world is dark now that you're missing
|
Now that you're missing
|
|
When you were next to me,
|
Why didn't I tell you?
|
You were so good to me
|
And why didn't I just take back everything I said to you?
|
And take back everything I put you through?
|
Why didn't I tell you?
|
|
I love the way you understand,
|
The way you love,
|
The way you were
|
Why didn't I tell you?
|
That you were beautiful
|
And you were worth it all
|
So why didn't I tell you?
|
You captured my attention, did I mention?
|
So why didn't I tell you?
|
That you were beautiful
|
That you were worth it all
|
So why didn't I tell you?
|
|
If I could tell you now
|
I'd say I love you
|
