Speak now

So you know?
Only now, it seems all those things that you said
Perchance, there’s something more that they meant
And you know?
How I tried, my best not to think of them at all
The words were so hard to recall
Without a thought I carry on in daydream and in song
I'm brash I know but even so I walk along in this life with nowhere to go

And when
I reach my final day, this life slowly burning away
Surely I’ll regret all the words I couldn’t say, ah
Even there on my final day, I know I’ll still call your name
Once more, once more, once more
More now, no doubt, speak out

So you know?
Though I try, I can’t find the words saying why
That blue hue had filled up the sky
Or you know?
What to say, to place all the small little lights
That shine through the clouds up in the night
Speak now

So you know
I’ll confess, in truth I had known long ago
That you had gone and left me alone
But you know
I'm the kind, of fool who would just let it go
And not let the pain ever show

Really clearly I’ll say it
Make a note and swear I’ll repay it
Let’s arrange, that we’ll meet, in the heat, of the day just take me with you
The flowers last after they scatter
Every day out in the summer heat had mattered
Talk your heart out, give it a voice now, shouting it all loud

And when
I reach my final day, just once could you smile once again?
I'm sure
There on my final day, I’ll sing this song full of love
And you’ll smile and tell me that I finally did enough, yeah
Sadly there on my final day you won’t be the one by my side
Long ago you went and left my life

Once more, once more, once more, once more
Once more, once more, once more, if you could
Once more, once more, once more, once more
More now, no doubt, speak out
