"What I Wanted To Say" lyrics

"What I Wanted To Say"

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

'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

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

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

'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

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

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

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)

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
