Say the Word

A busy airport on a Sunday afternoon I went to see her off, the least that I could do Cause there were dream I had, and fortunes to be made And her love was in my way And as I watched her slowly walk toward the gate Something deep inside woke up and called her name She turned her hopeful eyes and through the tears that bleed This is what she said... Say the word and I would give to you my life Say the word and I'm yours until the day you die I just stood there while my pride got in the way And I still regret today, the words I didn't say I heard someone in Denver made her smile again Now she's got his name, and kids that look like him I've got my fortune, more than I could ever need Oh, but Denver's got my dream Say the word and I would give to you my life Say the word and I'm yours until the day you die I just stood there while my pride got in the way And I still regret today All the choices I have made And all that could have been A thousand dreams that haunt me I try to speak and she just says again Say the word and I would give to you my life Say the word and I'm yours until the day you die I just stood there while my pride got in the way And I still regret today Yes, I still regret today, the words I didn't say
