     The Words I Should Have Said

You meant the world to me
Had a heart as pure as gold.
But there-'s so much you nev-er knew
My true feel-ings nev-er show-ed.

I could-n't see a thing
Too ma-ny tears fil-led my eyes.
As they car-ried you a-way
'Cause you-'d nev-er re-al-ize.

(Chorus:)
I felt them in my heart
Had the words here in my head.
But, did-n't take the time to say
The words I should have said.

I work-ed too much to think
Just how lone-ly I would be.
Nev-er thought I'd see the day
When the Lord took you from me.

Now I know it's too late
I have to deal with my re-gret.
They say with time my pain will heal
But this pain I won't for-get.

(Repeat Chorus:)

 (Bridge:)
It's a time for facing facts
When this dread-ful mom-ment comes.
You face all you did wrong
All the things you left un-done.
