Those three words
Should have said them more often
Should have reassured you
Should have done moreLoving touches
Should have initiated them
Should have been less shy
Should have reacted on my instinctsIt's too late now though
I'm left with my regrets
My tearsThe regret always comes after, doesn't it?
If only I had known
I should have been more perceptiveI wish you had told me everything
Been completely honest
Then I could have done moreBut maybe even you didn't realize it was that important
I guess we'll never know
What might have happened
If I had only said those three words more
