It took me by surprise, when I saw you standing there
Close enough to touch, breathing the same air
You asked me how I've been
I guess that's when I smiled and just said fine
Oh, but baby I was lying?
(chorus)
What I really meant to say, is that I'm dying here inside
And I miss you more each day, there's not a night I haven't cried
And baby, here's the truth I'm still in love with you
Yeah that's what I really meant say
And as you walked away, the echo of my words
Cut just like a knife, cut so deep it hurt
I held back the tears, held onto my pride and watched you go
I wonder if you'll ever know?
(repeat chorus)
What I really meant to say, is I'm really not that strong
And no matter how I try, I'm still holding on
And here's the honest truth I'm still in love with you
That's what I really meant to say
That's what I really meant to say
That's what I really meant to say
Eddie Garcia
