(what i meant to say) Last night i told a lie When i told you i could say goodbye Here in the light of day What a crazy thing for me to say What i meant to say was i love you What's been killin' me is i hurt you What i didn't do was hold you when i saw the teardrops fall What i should've said was i'm sorry What i should've said was forgive me What i meant to say was what i didn't say at all Last night i had a dream You were really walking out on me I woke up scared to death Please forget about the things i said What i meant to say was i love you What's been killin' me is i hurt you What i didn't do was hold you when i saw the teardrops fall What i should've said was i'm sorry What i should've said was forgive me What i meant to say was what i didn't say at all What i meant to say was what i didn't say at all
