[ LYRICS ]
We roamed the world, just you and me,  
Friends on the road, that's all we'd be.  
Laughing through cities, sharing dreams,  
I never said what you really mean.

Now you're gone, it's just too late,  
Memories rush in, and they don't abate.

"I should have confessed," as you walked away,  
Now every place whispers your name.  
"I should have confessed," my heart's silent scream,  
In every laugh, you were my dream.

We watched the sunsets, just like scenes,  
Didn't know love was woven in between.  
I played it cool, a friend in kind,  
But your smile lingered in my mind.

Every joke, every shared night,  
Was a chance to say it right.

"I should have confessed," in the quiet breaks,  
With every dawn, my heart awakes.  
"I should have confessed," now I see the signs,  
In every star, where your hand was in mine.

The cafes and streets now feel so bare,  
Places we loved, I see you there.  
A ghost in my heart, a shadow so real,  
I should've told you just how I feel.

But I let the moments slip,  
My words caught on a tight-lipped grip.

If I could rewind, go back to when,  
I'd say it loud, again and again.  
"Not just friends," that's what I'd confess,  
In hopes that you'd say yes.

"I should have confessed," my quiet regret,  
Now I sing to the memories we set.  
"I should have confessed," now it's clear to see,  
You were always more than just a friend to me.

So here's my song, it's all I have left,  
My heart's confession, of love bereft.  
"I should have confessed," now it's just a song,  
A melody for a love gone wrong

I should have confessed

I Should Have Confessed
