Words Unspoken

[Verse] I’m tracing raindrops racing on the window pane, Longing for the telephone to ring. Last time we spoke you left town on the midnight train. To hear your voice now I’d give anything. But you’re not here, No, you’re not here.

[Chorus] I wish I’d said the words I left unspoken I wish I’d stayed but I just walked away. Perhaps I could’ve healed the heart I’d broken. Maybe “sorry” would’ve made you stay. [Bridge] Foolish pride before destruction, Arrogance before a fall, If you read between the lines, I’d give anything to turn back time. [Slide Guitar Break] [Chorus] I wish I’d said the words I left unspoken I wish I’d stayed but I just walked away. Perhaps I could’ve healed the heart I’d broken. Maybe “sorry” would’ve made you stay. [Chorus] I wish I’d said the words I left unspoken I wish I’d stayed but I just walked away. Maybe I could’ve healed the heart I’d broken. Maybe sorry would’ve made you stay. [Verse] I’m tracing raindrops racing on the window pane, And I know the telephone won’t ring. ‘Cause you’re not here, No, no you’re not here……
