Lyrics

VERSE
You've heard about a day late and a dollar short
Sometimes it's not the money; it's the verbal sort
Lovers need to hear it, but it's gotta be true
It's way too late now for any "I love you's"

VERSE
I guess you don't love me; it's really hard to know
You treat me very well; we're always on the go
But sometimes when we're lovin,' you're a million miles away
And when I say "I love you," you look the other way

CHORUS
It's too late to say it now
You should've said it then
Now that I'm leavin,' you're just learnin' how
But don't say it now or ever again
'Cause you should've said it then

VERSE
One more thing to tell you as I'm walkin' away
I love you more and more each and every day
But if you really loved me, you'd tell me true
Now I know it's just not somethin' you can do

Repeat CHORUS/BRIDGE
You talk a lot without sayin' what you need to say
Did you think I'd just be here 'til forever and a day

SOLO/Repeat CHORUS (2x)/TAG
Yeah, you should've said it then
