Lyrics:

Hard drinking and secret aches
Vague meanings and no regrets
Hold scenes from the life we choose
Cold things that you can't excuse
And we don't even try

If what I said
And what you heard today
Had only been
What I had meant to say
I know you'd understand
And you would hold my heart
In your hand

Bad timing and circumstance
Spins us in an angry dance
I have to be right this time
You left making sure that I'm
The only one to blame

If what I said
And what you heard today
Had only been
What I had meant to say
I know you'd understand
And you would hold my heart
In your hand

Warm feelings that crash and burn
Deep wounds and some careless terms
Then everyone runs away
Fear wins and the price we pay
Is all the love that's gone

If what I said
And what you heard today
Had only been
What I had meant to say
I know you'd understand

If what I said
And what you heard today
Had only been
What I had meant to say
I know you'd understand
You always held my heart
In your hand
In your hand
