[Verse 1] Slammed the door Watched your shadow shake Said the sharpest thing Just to make you break Now the room’s still loud With what I can’t take back Your sweater on the chair Feels like you staring back [Chorus] I didn’t mean it Every word was smoke Floating from a hurt tongue Trying not to choke If I could hold you Instead of all this pride I’d pull those bitter letters Right out of the sky I didn’t mean it But I still made you cry [Verse 2] Phone in my hand Name on the screen Typing out “I’m sorry” Then I hit delete ‘Cause what if you’re done What if I’m too late I’m stuck replaying silence At our old front gate [Chorus] I didn’t mean it Every word was smoke Floating from a hurt tongue Trying not to choke If I could hold you Instead of all this pride I’d pull those bitter letters Right out of the sky I didn’t mean it But I still made you cry [Bridge] If you walk back in I won’t raise my voice You can take your time You can have the choice I’ll be on this couch Heart in both my hands (oh) Saying it again Hoping you understand [Chorus] I didn’t mean it Every word was smoke Floating from a hurt tongue Trying not to choke If I could hold you On this quiet night I’d trade a thousand phrases For one chance to make it right I didn’t mean it But I said it anyway I didn’t mean it Can you come back Anyway
