Description

The words that hurt the most
Are the ones you didn't say

As I looked into your tear filled eyes
While you were trying to explain
You danced around the truth
chose each word so carefully
I saw you trying not to hurt me
And you thought you'd found a way
But, the words that hurt the most
Are the ones you didn't say

You didn't tell me what you felt
When you looked into his eyes
You didn't say what you were thinking of
When your skin touched his at night
You tried to protect me from the truth
With all the words you chose that day
But, the words that hurt the most
Are the ones you didn't say

You said he didn't mean a thing to you
It was one too many drinks
One stupid weak and lonely night
Just a big mistake
You said there was no need for worry
That we should just turn the page
But, the words that hurt the most
Are the ones you didn't say

You didn't tell me if it crossed your mind
While you were lying in his bed
The life we've lived together and
The dreams I thought we shared
I'm trying to forgive you
I know I need to find a way
But, the words that hurt the most
Are the ones you didn't say
The words that hurt the most
Are the ones you didn't say
