I Wanted To
I don't know who you're talking to these days, but I know it's not me
Sometimes I wonder if you ever stop and think about me
Your beauty's got everyone you meet begging on their knees
I hope you're listening
I gotta say some things
There was a day
I would've been able to say
This all to your face, but now I write it on a page
So when I drop this song and you press play
I want you to know that I wish I could say
I wanted to hold you and be the guy
You called to talk to almost every night
I wanted to love you and hold you tight
But you never gave me a chance in sight
I wanted to show you what a date would be like
With me compared to any of the guys on your
mind
I'm telling you now cause I don't know if you knew
These are the things that I wanted to do
What if I told you before it was too late
Or what if I made my move that one day
What if I, what if I
But I didn't, I gotta live with that
Immature with my words and knowing when to talk
Not sure if the words on my mind would've
shocked you
I blocked you
From knowing the full truth with not enough words used
I refused
Had no clue if I'd break the fuse and cause me to lose you
I never found the time to tell you the truth
So I write this song to try to pay my dues
I wanted to hold you and be the guy
You called to talk to almost every night
I wanted to love you and hold you tight
But you never gave me a chance in sight
I wanted to show you what a date would be like
With me compared to any of the guys on your
mind
I'm telling you now cause I don't know if you knew
These are the things that I wanted to do
Do with you
Experience with you
I speak in past tense cause it's done
I sat while I let you run
I hope you find what you want
I apologize I didn't talk
I remember when I sat and watched, you walk down a road I could've stopped
You went a different route
Cause I didn't shout
And spill the words out loud
Well now you're gone now
I wanted to hold you and be the guy
You called to talk to almost every night
I wanted to love you and hold you tight
But you never gave me a chance in sight
I wanted to show you what a date would be like
With me compared to any of the guys on your
mind
I'm telling you now cause I don't know if you knew
These are the things that I wanted to do
Sometimes I wonder if you ever stop and think about me
Your beauty's got everyone you meet begging on their knees
I hope you're listening
I gotta say some things
There was a day
I would've been able to say
This all to your face, but now I write it on a page
So when I drop this song and you press play
I want you to know that I wish I could say
