Verse 1: Saw you every morning, at the same old place, Heart would skip a beat, every time I saw your face. From a distance, admired, never made a move, Thought I had forever, now I've got nothing to prove. Pre-Chorus: Dreamed of conversations, imagined what I'd say, But the fear inside me always got in the way. Now you're gone, and I'm left here to wonder, Why I couldn't find the words, still it pulls me under. Chorus: Should have told you how I felt, should have let you know, Now the chance is gone, and I let you go. Could’ve changed everything with a single word, Now the silence hurts so much. Why didn't I ever speak up? Why didn't I ever speak up? Verse 2: Every time you smiled, the world lit up for me, But I kept my distance, thought you were out of reach. Friends said take a chance, but I let it slide, Now I'm here regretting, as the tears fill my eyes. Pre-Chorus: Dreamed of conversations, imagined what I'd say, But the fear inside me always got in the way. Now you're gone, and I'm left here to wonder, Why I couldn't find the words, still it pulls me under. Chorus: Should have told you how I felt, should have let you know, Now the chance is gone, and I let you go. Could’ve changed everything with a single word, Now the silence hurts so much. Why didn't I ever speak up? Why didn't I ever speak up? Bridge: In the silence, I hear your voice, Whispering through the noise. Regret’s a heavy burden, Wishing for a different choice. Chorus: Should have told you how I felt, should have let you know, Now the chance is gone, and I let you go. Could’ve changed everything with a single word, Now the silence hurts so much. Why didn't I ever speak up? Why didn't I ever speak up? Outro: Every night, I dream of you, Wishing for another chance. But you’re gone, and I’m left here, In this silent, lonely dance. Why didn't I ever speak up?
