The Things I Didn't Do
I never said I loved you as I should have
done
I never told you darling you're the only
one
Will I do on regretting now my whole life
through
The things I didn't do?
I never held my arms around you long
enough
I never dared to make my kisses strong
enough
Will I do on regretting now my whole life
through
The things I didn't do?
I was too much afraid, afraid to get
burned
In a one way romance!
So now I'm alone, too late I have learned
I never gave love a chance!
But if there is an answer to my every
prayer
If you can find within your heart that
you still care
I'll gladly spend my life just makin' up
to you
The things I didn't do!
< instrumental break >
I never gave love a chance!
But if there is an answer to my every
prayer
If you can find within your heart that
you still care
I'll gladly spend my life just makin' up
to you
The things . . . The things I didn't do!
