I almost said it, once or twice
But silence always rolled the dice
Your eyes would ask what mine would hide
So close to truth, but we let it slide

You touched my hand, then pulled away
Like words we couldn't let ourselves say

Now it's just echoes in the cold
A story lost, forever untold
The pages blank, the time ran fast
We left our moment in the past
It should have been more, I should have been bold
But here we are, forever untold

I see you smile in someone's light
But I still dream of you some nights
A shadow left where you once stood
We never said it, though we could

It wasn't fear, it wasn't pride
Just the wrong place, the wrong time

Now it's just echoes in the cold
A story lost, forever untold
The pages blank, the time ran fast
We left our moment in the past
It should have been more, I should have been bold
But here we are, forever untold

Maybe some love is meant to fade
To live in silence, not be saved
But even now, I sometimes hear
The words I never said, so near

Now it's just echoes in the cold
A story lost, forever untold
The pages blank, the time ran fast
We left our moment in the past
It should have been more, I should have been bold
But here we are, forever untold
