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