Lyrics
Something To Say
By Peter Bowering
I'm in the shadows
Away from the light
My tongue is twisted
And painfully tight
I should be speaking
But nothing comes out
It seems like...
I have nothing to say
Have nothing to say
I tried to follow
Into the light
It isn't easy
The shadows are tight
I should be breathing
But nothing comes out
It seems like...
I have nothing to say
Have nothing to say
Like I have nothing to say
Have nothing to say
I had a dream about my life
Thought it would be better than this
You had a dream about your life
Thought it would be more than this
I know I hurt you, I know I hurt you
But sorry is sometimes hard to say
I wake in the shadows
And turn on the light
I think I was dreaming
That everything is alright
Now that it hits me
All over again
I realize...
I have something to say
Have something to say
I have something to say
Have something to say
But the words won't come out
Won't come out
The words won't come out
(I love you)
Won't come out
The words won't come out
(I love you)
Won't come out
I have something to say
