Songtexte I Love You - Chris Harms

She said, "I love you," before she died
But she didn't say it to my face
I wasn't there when she said goodnight (goodnight)
She said it to someone else

This should have been me, this could have been me
This would have been me, if I wasn't afraid
This should have been you, this could have been you
This would have been you, but I chose to wait

Here is our story, here is our plight
No happy ending, no lullaby
There ain't no glory, no hero, no knight
No dragon, no princess, no honor, no fight
I go to sleep alone
Every night, I wake with a stone where once was a heart

I said, "I love you," at the graveside
With a sense of loss I can't replace
I'd give the world for another try
She'll never be here to tell

This should have been us, this could have been us
This would have been us, but now it's too late

Here is our story, here is our plight
No happy ending, no lullaby
There ain't no glory, no hero, no knight
No dragon, no princess, no honor, no fight
I go to sleep alone
Every night, I wake with a stone where once was a heart

(She said, "I love you," before she died)
She said, "I love you," before she died
But I never got to bid farewell
I wasn't there when she said goodnight
Now she'll say it to no one else again

I loved you then
I love you still
Be sure I did
I do
I will

I loved you then
I love you still
Be sure I did
I do
I will

I loved you then
I love you still
Be sure I did
I do
I will
