I Might Have Said

(album: One More Try For Love - 1984)

"Have you met my husband?" I heard her say to me
In a room full of people faded to a memory
Of when she was my lover was it only yesterday
I was somehow fool enough to let her slip away

I might have said I love you, oh, a long ago
I might have said I need you, just to let her know
We might have lived forever a life without regrets
But I'm standing here after all these years
Thinking instead of all, I might have said

She said you're looking well after all this time
And I remarked that it appeared her life had been quite kind
And as she held on tightly to the man at her side
The conversation could not fool what the silences implied

I might have said I love you, oh, a long ago
I might have said I need you, just to let her know
We might have lived forever a life without regrets
But I'm standing here after all these years
Thinking instead of all, I might have said

Then she put her hand in mine and whispered "It's been nice"
And in that stolen moment, I saw something in her eyes

I might have said I love you, oh, a long ago
I might have said I need you, just to let her know
We might have lived forever a life without regrets
But I'm standing here after all these years
Thinking instead of all, I might have said
I might have said
