And said I wouldnt cry

Theres still half a canvas left
Bm A G
And three unfinished measures

A wooden box of broken promises

And the things I wish you said

But they always say
G A
Some things are better left unsaid

But I always wish

I knew what was going through your head

And painted the Mona Lisa

And twenty conversations

An envelope of shy confessions

The day you sent that message

But Ive always heard them say
G A
That This too shall pass
D
And Im wondering what wouldve happened
G A
If I hadnt asked

Could it have fixed what we had broken

Take back words that were spoken

Tell me your real emotions
A Bm
That couldve finished the piece of we
A G A
And finished the piece of me
