Things I Wish I Would've Said

Katy Nichole

Lyrics
I saw you in a picture on my phone
Guess I didn't quite erase them all
And for the first time in a while
I thought about givin' you a call

'Cause I love you and I miss you and I need you
I'm so sorry for the words I used to hurt you
Time keeps goin' by, but time just won't let me forget
All the things I wish I would've said
(Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh)

Last words that sound like slammin' doors
Tears we never saw each other cry
And I thought it was for the best
Now I can't find the good in that goodbye

'Cause I love you and I miss you and I need you
I'm so sorry for the words I used to hurt you
Time keeps goin' by, but time just won't let me forget
All the things I wish I would've said

What if I said I don't wanna fight? (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
What if neither one of us was right? (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
Would we find some healin' hidden in these wounds?
Would we find some hope for me and you?

'Cause I love you and I miss you and I need you
I'm so sorry for the words I used to hurt you
Time keeps goin' by, but time just won't let me forget
All the things I wish I would've said
All the things I wish I would've said
(Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh)
