Left Unsaid

There are songs that express it perfectly

Two by Avril Lavigne that I can think of

The first goes through things I’ll never say

And the second, well, that’s all about the girlfriend

So here I sit

I’m writing out my thoughts

I’m trying to express myself

Here are the things I left unsaid

I’ve said it a hundred times

But it was all in my head

I looked into your eyes

And I saw something

When we spoke

I felt a spark

There was interest

And it wasn’t just me

I lay in bed

And saw you staring down at me

Just leaning against that dresser

As you told me your brother’s name

There was more

Just on the tip of my tongue

You snuck me drinks

And drove me to work

And I’m not even sure

If I thanked you

Did I ever thank you?

You did so much for me

And I can’t remember if I ever

Said “Thank you”

Two simple words

And I can’t remember

I wish I knew

I wish I’d said them

Can I say them now?

That’s what I don’t know

But I want to know

More than anything else

Do you know what you meant to me?

Do you even know what you did for me?

Because I can’t seem to say it

I can’t find you now

I can’t talk to you now

I don’t know how to tell you

How do I say?

All the things I left unsaid
