Song lyrics

I should've done something
Again I did nothing
Watched us separate.
What should I do now?
Run and chase you down?
I can't hesitate...

'Cause all I wanted to say was something real.
All I want you to know is how I feel.
All I wanted to give was my heart.
But I'm stuck here at the start.

It's on the tip of my tongue but I'm still afraid.
Sometimes the only things words do is get in the way.
Sometimes the easiest things are the hardest to say
But I don't want to lose you, drive you away.
Don't want to confuse you, I need you to stay.
Only wish you knew what I wanted to say.
Only wish you knew what I wanted to say.

My hands are shaking.
I'm yours for the taking.
Don't you hesitate.
Please, just do one thing,
One small sign, something...
Let's jump off the edge.

'Cause all I want you to say is something real.
All I wanted to know is how you feel.
All I want you to give is your heart.
But we're stuck here at the start.

It's on the tip of my tongue but I'm still afraid.
Sometimes the only things words do is get in the way.
Sometimes the easiest things are the hardest to say
But I don't want to lose you, drive you away.
Don't want to confuse you, I need you to stay.
Only wish you knew what I wanted to say.
Only wish you knew what I wanted to say.

It's on the tip of my tongue but I'm still afraid.
Sometimes the only things words do is get in the way.
Sometimes the easiest things are the hardest to say
But I don't want to lose you.

I don't wanna lose you.
No, I don't wanna lose you.
No, I don't wanna lose you.

I should've done something, I should've done something.
I should've done something but I never wanted to.
I should've done something, I should've done something.
I should've done something but I never wanted to.
(I don't want to lose you, drive you away)
I don't wanna lose you.
(I only wish you knew what I wanted to say)
No, I don't wanna lose you.
(What I wanted to say)

I should've done something, I should've done something.
I should've done something but I never wanted to.
I should've done something, I should've done something.
I should've done something but I never wanted to.
