I don't say I'd love to hold you close But the things we left unsaid We want the most I don't say that I'm scared that you could go Cause the things we left unsaid We fear the most Silence can be louder sometimes And the echo Can last for lifetimes Oh what a crime To only realize When we're running out of time I don't say that I'm scared to watch you grow But the things we left unsaid We fear the most I don't say that I love you more than gold But the things we left unsaid We feel the most And silence can be louder sometimes And the echo Can last for lifetimes Oh what a crime To only realize When we're running out of time Getting used not to say I love you Cause we fear that we're saying it too much And it dries Till it dies Maybe we'll be better in the afterlife Getting used not to say I love you Till we end up not saying it enough And it dries And it dies Maybe we'll do better in the afterlife Maybe we'll do better in the afterlife Maybe we'll do better in the afterlife Maybe we'll do better in the afterlife
