I woke up today
Seeing all the stars that you have thrown
Wounded by the same old shots you take
It's easier to kick the wind that low

And I just thought that you should know
If I could only know why you'd been letting go
Then it's not too late to say it right this time
'Cause I know I said I'm sorry
But that's not what I meant to say

Strong enough to say
That I don't wanna take the hard road now
S-S-So typical of you to walk away
When your perfect little world is burning down
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsfreak.com/d/daughtry/what+i+meant+to+say_20840213.html ]
And I just thought that you should know
That I'd been holding on while you'd been letting go
Can I be so bold
'Cause all this talking all to you's just getting old
Then it's not too late to say it right this time
'Cause I know I said I'm sorry
But that's not what I meant to say

Ah,
What I really meant to say
With every little breath I take
I'm not the only one who makes mistakes
Just think of all the ones you made

And I just thought that you should know
That I'd been holding on while you'd been letting go
Can I be so bold
'Cause all this talking all to you's just getting old
Well, it's not too late to say it right this time
'Cause I know I said I'm sorry
But that's not what I meant to say

Can I be so bold
'Cause all this talking all to you's just getting old
Well, it's not too late to say it right this time
'Cause I know I said I'm sorry
But that's not what I meant to say
