If I could bring the sky
A little closer to the ground
And make the world turn round
A little slower
If I could prize the lid off of
This weight that holds me down
And understand her heart
And really know her
And if our love were cold and dead
I'd curse my empty head
If only I could say
The things I've never said
I know your face is pretty
And I know your eyes are brown
And I know what town
You came from
And I understand the way you
Lift me when I'm down
And where you got your beauty
And your name from
And if our love were cold and dead
I'd curse my empty head
If only I could say
The things I've never said
Why do I keep on yearnin'
Even though you're in my bed
Why is so much left undone
And so much left unsaid
The moon is getting weaker
As it drifts across the sky
The autumn leaves just die
Where they have fallen
And if our love were cold and dead
I'd curse my empty head
If only I could say
The things I've never said
If only I had said
The things I've never said
Things I've never said
