Words I Couldn't Say lyrics

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

Chorus
What do I do now that youre 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 couldnt say

Theres a rain thatll never stop falling
Theres a wall that Ive tried to take down
What I shouldve said just wouldnt pass my lips
So I held back and now weve come to this

And its too late now

Are the words I couldnt say
I should have found a way to tell you how I felt
Now the only one Im tellin is myself

What do I do, what do I say
And no else to blame
All I can hear in the silence that remains
Are the words I couldnt say
