Words I Couldn't Say Lyrics

Leighton Meester

• In a book, in a box, in the closet
• In a line, in a song I once heard
• In a moment on a front porch late one June
• In a breath inside a whisper beneath the moon
• There it was at the tips of my fingers
• There it was on the tip of my tongue
• There you were and I had never been that far
• There it was the whole world wrapped inside my arms
• And I let it all slip away
• What do I do now that you're gone
• No back up plan, no second chance
• And no one else to blame
• All I can hear in the silence that remains
• Are the words I couldn't say
• There's a rain that will never stop fallin'
• There's a wall that I tried to take down
• What I should have said just wouldn't pass my lips
• So I held back and now we've come to this
• And it's too late now
• What do I do now that you're gone
• No back up plan, no second chance
• And no one else to blame
• All I can hear in the silence that remains
• Are the words I couldn't say
• I should have found the way to tell you how I felt
• Now the one I'm telling is myself
• What do I do now that you're gone
• No back up plan, no second chance
• And no one else to blame
• All I can hear in the silence that remains
• Are the words I couldn't say
• What do I do now that you're gone
• No back up plan, no second chance
• And no one else to blame
• All I can hear in the silence that remains
• Are the words I couldn't say
• What do I do now that you're gone
• No back up plan, no second chance
• And no one else to blame
• All I can hear in the silence that remains
• Are the words I couldn't say
