Meant to Say
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Poor drinking and cigarettes
And no regrets
Old scenes from the life we choose
Old things that you can't excuse
And we don't try
If what I said
And what you heard today
Had only been
What I had meant to say
I know you'd understand
And you would hold my heart
In your hands
Bad timing and circumstance
Spins us in an angry dance
I have to be right this time
You left me, then said goodbye
The only one to blame
If what I said
And what you heard today
Had only been
What I had meant to say
I know you'd understand
And you would hold my heart
In your hands
Warm feelings that crash and burn
Deep wounds and some careless turns
Then everyone runs away
Fear wings are the price we paid
Is it all the love that's gone
If what I said
And what you heard today
Had only been
What I had meant to say
I know you'd understand
If what I said
And what you heard today
Had only been
What I had meant to say
I know you'd understand
And you would hold my heart
In your hands
