What I Really Meant to Say Lyrics

It took me by surprise
When I saw you standing there
Close enough to touch
Breathing the same air
You asked me how I'd been
I guess that's when
I smiled and said just fine
Oh but baby I was lying
CHORUS:
What I really meant to say

Is I'm dying here inside
I miss you more each day
There's not a night
I haven't cried
And baby here's the truth
I'm still in love with you
That's what I really meant to say

And as you walked away
The echo of my words
Cut just like a knife
Cut so deep it hurt
I held back the tears
Held on to my pride
And watched you go
I wonder if you'll ever know

What I really meant to say
Is I'm dying here inside
I miss you more each day
There's not a night
I haven't cried
And baby here's the truth
I'm still in love with you
That's what I really meant to say

What I really meant to say
Is I'm really not that strong
No matter how I try
I'm still holding on
And here's hte honest truth
I'm still in love with you
That's what I really meant to say
