The Things I Never Said歌词

It isn’t easy to express what I feel inside
But that shouldn’t come as a surprise to you
Haven’t been the perfect mom
but please know that I tried
I did the best I could and that’s the best that I could do
Now facing a future that’s uncertain
I cannot say what lies ahead
But I won’t give up
I’ll face my fear
and fight back years of un-cried tears
and tell you all the things I never said
All of the hours spent at work
consumed with my career
I won’t blame you if you thought I didn’t care
Graduations that I missed
All the games I didn’t cheer
I never told you then but how I wanted to be there
As thoughts of the past run through my memory
The choices I’ve made, the life I’ve led
And office on the highest floor
It meant so much but you mean more
That’s one of many things
So much in my life I took for granted
Like tucking my children into bed
My world was always spinning fast
and in an instant years have past
and here I sit with so much left unsaid
I’ve always lived a world apart
But through it all you were my heart
That’s one of many things, so many things
I never said
