The Lemon Twigs
Why Didn’t You Say That?
[Verse 1]
I never thought she'd doubt me when I said I loved her still
I wanted to say how I felt that day
I said "I always will"
And I want to say I miss you
And I wish that I was with you
But I hadn't, I hadn't, I wonder why

[Verse 2]
She couldn't stand to see me walking with my own two legs
I needed her then more than I'd ever again
Fell on my knees and begged
Said I'm sorry that I waste you
A girl like you was made to be had and I, had and I wonder why

[Chorus]
And I won't say you're pretty
If you think you're too busy
To put your hand in mine
It happens all the time
I wanna be with you
If love is what you knew
Then why didn't you say that?

Ooh shalala
Ooh shalala
Ooh shalala
Ooh shalala
Ooh shalala
Ooh shalala
Ooh shalala
[Chorus]
And I won't say you're pretty
If you think you're too busy
To put your hand in mine
It happens all the time
I wanna be with you
If love is what you knew
Then why didn't you say that?
Why didn't you say that?
Say that
