Lyrics

I'm rarely at a loss for words
And when I'm so inclined
I'm known by friend and foe alike
To say what's on my mind
But when I hold you close to me
The words just disappear
And somehow, I can't say the words
I want you to hear
Instead of going
Searching
For the perfect thing to say
I should have spoken sooner
I should have said I love you today
Life's not a dress rehearsal
We only get one chance to play
Don't put off until tomorrow
What should be said today

Every time that we fight and I feel that we're through
We say awful things none of them true
I should have said I love you
I should have made you see
Say it a thousand times
'Till you come home to me
If I said I love you
And closed with a kiss
We wouldn't be angry and feeling like this
A simple phrase "I love you"
But sometimes so hard to say
How did I let you walk away?
I should have said I love you today
