All I Never Said

All I Never Said by Britt Connors
Let's talk about the weather, do you think it's gonna rain?
I don't know how long this heat can last
And did you hear the one about the fisherman's daughter
who tied her cheating lover to the mast
Once again I'm quiet, with nothing left to say
A mouth full of regret, and a tongue that's in the way
(Chorus)
I've swallowed so much pride, it's stuck in my throat
Choking my heart in my chest
It's time I got it out and let my head rest
Tell you all that's really on my mind
And All I Never Said... All I Never Said
We tiptoed 'round the issues, a pretty kind of dance
You quickly learned I wouldn't pick a fight
But like a moonlit lake, its surface smooth as glass
My demons lurk below just out of sight
Once again I'm breathless, this dance has worn me thin
Just wind me up and set me down, it's a good place to begin
(Chorus)
I've swallowed so much pride, it's stuck in my throat
Choking my heart in my chest
It's time I got it out, and let my head rest
Tell you all that's really on my mind
And All I Never Said... All I Never Said
(Bridge)
I was so close... to letting go of my dreams
So close... to letting you define me
So close... but I think I'm finally able
To lay all my words on the table
(Chorus)
I've swallowed so much pride, it's stuck in my throat
Choking my heart in my chest
It's time I got it out, and let my head rest
Tell you all that's really on my mind
And All I Never Said... All I Never Said....
