I didn't say, " Don't do it,babe"
When she packed up to go.

I didn't say' "Come back here,honey
And try with me once more"

And when she asked me if I love her
I just turned away

She's gone, and now I'm hearing
all the things I didn't say

I didn't say " We'll work it out
Cause all we need is love and faith and time"

I said ," If that's the way you want it,
I won't stand in your way"

She's gone, and now I'm hearing
All the things I didn't say

I didn't take her in my arms and kiss away her tears
I didn't say," My life doesn't mean

A thing if you ain't here"
I thought of all the many games I'd be free to play

But all I do is listen to

The things I didn't say
I didn't say, " Take off your coat...

I'll make some coffee, and we'll talk"

I didn't say," The road away is such

A long and lonely endless walk"
I said," Good-bye,good luck,

God bless you" and she slipped away
And left me here to live with all

The things I didn't say
