Song Description

Our relationship has had many ups and downs. I've finally realized how much I love you and how much you mean to me but I don't know how to say it and now it's too late. You tried so hard to get me to trust you and to show me how much you loved me. I had been hurt so much in the past that I wasn't able to let my guard down. Now you're leaving me because I've never been able to let you love me and never been able to love you back. I'm sorry that I couldn't love you the way you deserved. I'm sorry that I couldn't tell you that I loved you. I'm sorry that I waited until you were gone to try to say these things to you.

Lyrics

We've had so many chances
Back and forth, round and round
I've pushed you again, It might be the end
I'm afraid I can't share what I've found
Here I stand open before you
I offer my heart in my hands
The words just won't come, The moment's undone
once more I'm left where I stand

Chorus:
Well, I wanted to tell you I love you
I wanted to say I was wrong
I wanted to say I was sorry
For waiting so long, for waiting so long

You've made a valiant attempt here
Tried to convince me you're true
I just couldn?t see, I refused to believe
Hurt was the path that I knew
You understood, you kept reaching
And every time I turned away
I've turned back around, on solid ground
Now it could be too late

Chorus
Well, I wanted to tell you I love you
I wanted to say I was wrong
I wanted to say I was sorry
For waiting so long, for waiting so long

Now you say you're tired of working
To prove that our love's worth a try
It's over and done, before it's begun
You're tired of wasting your time
'Cause I'll never learn how to trust you
Now it's you who'll turn away
You won't let me come near, you don't want to hear
There's just something I wanted to say

Chorus
Well, I wanted to tell you I love you
I wanted to say I was wrong
I wanted to say I was sorry
For waiting so long, for waiting so long
