Words I Couldn't Say

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 tip 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'll never stop falling There's a wall that I've tried to take down What I should've 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 Are the words I couldn't say I should have found a way to tell you how I felt Now the only one I'm tellin' 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, what do I say? And no one else to blame All I can hear in the silence that remains Are the words I couldn't say --- Words I Couldn't Say - Rascal Flatts
