Next Time You'll Know

Packing my bags, I hear your
Your song on the radio
Makin' me smile and think
I should call you, I knowIn a couple of days
I was gonna call you and say
Hey, how much you mean to me
How I think of you alwaysAnd God, if I'd only just told you
And God, God, if I simply just told you
Like I truly meant toWhy didn't I say so?
Why didn't I just call
One day just to say
Hey, I think you're such a legend?Why did I wait so long
To pick up the phone and call?
For those left behind
Never's such a long time, such a long timeSinging along to your song
Thinking it won't be long
I'll get to tell you the way
You came into my life, it changedThen the call came
One you don't want to hear again
Life would never be the same
I would nerve see you againOh God, if I'd only just told you
And God, if I simply just told you
Like I truly meant toWhy didn't I say so?
Why didn't I just call
One day just to say
Hey, I think you're such a legend?Why did I wait so long
To pick up the phone and call?
For those left behind
Never's such a long timeAnd there will always be regret
Why did I let myself forget?
Now sorrow clings to my vine
If only I'd made tomorrowMade tomorrow mine today
And now a million tomorrows
A million tomorrows pass awayThe next time you see me
I hope you'll forgive me
For all the times I didn't, did not
But I should have saidWhy did I wait so long
To pick up the phone and call?
For those left behind
Never's such a long timeSuch a very long time
Never's such a long time
Never's such a long time
Never's such a long time
