The Things I Should Have Said Lyrics

CAPO: 3rd Fret
Two by two the lovers wandered off into the night
Leaving me alone with someone that I only knew by sight
So we sat and watched each other through the fading firelight
Each one waiting for the silence to be broken
horus
But the things I should have said
That were whispering in my head
Would not be spoken___
The black gowned master glared at me with malice in his eye
The spittle from his twisted lips ran down to his bowtie
I was dumb before his accusations, I did not deny
When he'd done with me, I stood outside there, shattered
horus
And the things I should have said
That came rushing to my head
No longer matter_____
Instrumental
Teachers from whose hallowed mouths, great pearls of wisdom fall
To those who scrawl obscenities upon the alley walls
The joke is on the bloke who never spoke a word at all
But whose dreams lay unrevealed, 'til they were rotten
horus
And the things I should have said
That I was keeping in my head
Have been forgotten__
(## repeat and fade ##)
All the things I should have said
