Things They Didn't Say

(for Laura)

 

He doesn't know

And she just won't say.

Friends of a lifetime

Slowly drifting away.

She'll never tell him,

Thinks he just won't hear

So friends of a lifetime

Disappear.

 

If she could only say the way she feels

When he lets loose the rage

If he could only share the fears and cares

That he carries each day -

To think that once they were the best of friends,

Now that's all gone away

All because of things they didn't say.

 

 

 

They used to talk - share dreams just like lovers

Together they'd walk, content with each day

Now she has her hawk, and he has his druthers,

But they both seem worse off this way -

To think that once they were the best of friends

Now that's all gone away

All because of things they didn't say.

 

 

 

<Lost 2nd Verse, substitute Instrumental>

 

 

If she could only say the way she feels

When he lets loose the rage,

If he could only share the fears and cares

That he carries each day -

To think that once they were the best of friends,

Now that's all gone away

All because of things they didn't say.
