Meant to tell you   Tell you from the start   Meant to show you   What's inside this shallow heart   But I could not find the words   Worthy enough to say      I slipped along the way   I slipped along the way      Tried to be there   Be there if you fall   Tried to make you feel big   When life makes you feel small   But I could not find the steps   Quickly enough to take      I slipped along the way   I slipped along the way   I slipped along the way   I slipped along the way      I want to change things   Want to clear the air   Fix the things around us   So, badly in need of repair   I might not have the sense   Sense enough to change      I slipped along the way   I slipped along the way   I slipped along the way   I slipped along the way
