Things I Wish I'd Said - The Chameleons

An old face came to me tonight

I don’t know why he came

A million memories flickering

Just like home movies in my brain

I turned to stone

He stared at me

What could I do?

I asked him in for tea

Gone were the wild-eyed kids we knew

Two adults faced each other

We talked of trivialities

Ignored the poison in our hearts

We spoke of past and future dreams

While in my head I suppressed frustrated screams

Oh God, not you again

Oh God, not you again

Oh God

Go away

The time it seemed stood still for us

At last, he rose to leave

A million things I wish I’d said

Things that must now remain unsaid

I close the book inside my head

And now he’s gone, and a part of me is dead

Oh God, I’m on my own again

Oh God, I’m on my own again

So what?

Oh God, I’m on my own again

Oh God, I’m on my own again

Oh God, I’m on my own again

Oh God, I’m on my own again and again and again and again

Always haunting me, those things I wish I’d said to you

Always haunting me, those things I wish I’d said to you

Always haunting me, those things I wish I’d said to you

Always haunting me, those things I wish I’d said to you
