When I saw you standing there
Close enough to touch
Breathing the same air
You asked me how Id been
I guess thats when I smiled
And said, just fine.
Oh but baby I was lying

And I miss you more each day
Theres not a night I havent cried
And baby heres the truth
Im still in love with you
Thats 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 on to my pride
And watched you go
I wonder if youll ever know

What I really meant to say
Is Im dying here inside
And I miss you more each day
Theres not a night I havent cried
And baby heres the truth
Im still in love with you

What I really meant to say
Is Im really not that strong
No matter how I try
Im still holding on
And heres the honest truth
Im still in love with you, yeah
Thats what I really meant to s
