What I Really Meant To Say

It took me by surprise When I saw you standin' there Close enough to touch Breathin' the same air You asked me how I've been I guess that's when I smiled And said, just fine Oh but baby I was lyin' What I really meant to say Is I'm dyin' here inside And I miss you more each day There's not a night I haven't cried And baby here's the truth I'm still in love with you, yeah That's what I really meant to say And as you walked away The echo of my words Cut just like a knife Cut so deep it hurt I held back the tears Held on to my pride And watched you go I wonder if you'll ever know What I really meant to say Is I'm dyin' here inside And I miss you more each day There's not a night I haven't cried And baby here's the truth I'm still in love with you What I really meant to say Is I'm really not that strong No matter how I try I'm still holdin' on And here's the honest truth I'm still in love with you, yeah That's what I really meant to say That's what I really meant to say That's what I really meant to say
