It took me by surprise

When I saw you standing there

Close enough to touch

Breathing the same air

You asked me how I've been

I guess that's when I smiled and said just fine

Oh but baby I was lying

What I really meant to say

Is I'm dying here inside

And I miss you more each day

There's not a night I haven't cried

And baby here's the truth

I'm still in love with you

Yeh

That's what I really meant to say

And as you walked away

The echo of my words

Cut just like a knife

Cut so deep it hurt

I held back the tears

Held onto my pride

And watched you go

I wonder if you'll ever know

What I really meant to say

Is I'm dying here inside

And I miss more each day

There's not a night I haven't cried

And baby here's the truth

I'm still in love with you

What I really meant to say

Is I'm really not that strong

No matter how I try

I'm still holdin' on

And here's the honest truth

I'm still in love with you

Yeah that's what I really meant to say

That's what I really meant to say

That's what I really meant to say
