Things I Never Told You

(アルバム： Never Enough - 2023)

Cop got me doing 88 on Main
He let me off with a warning
And I was hungover as hell
Most of them third-pew Sunday mornings
I had a Playboy stashed
In a Johnny Cash LP sleeve in my room
That's just a few
Things I never told you

I kept a well-hid can of Skoal
In the console of my Chevy
Got a real good education skipping school
In the backseat on that levy
If you'd caught wind of half my sins
You'da whipped my ass through and through
Back then if you knew
Things I never told you

I wouldn't be half the man I am
If you hadn't loved this boy
I've never said it until now
But I always heard your voice
Cutting through that loud rock 'n' roll
Every fork in the road
Underneath the dirt I've never shown you
Thank you's at the top of my list
Of things I never told you

When I moved away from home, I
Didn't realize how much I'd miss ya
A phone call don't take the place
Of your smiling face
Cooking in that kitchen
You're the reason all my angels
And my demons finally called a truce
Yeah, that's just a few
Things I never told you

I wouldn't be half the man I am
If you hadn't loved this boy
I've never said it until now
But I always heard your voice
Cutting through that loud rock 'n' roll
Every fork in the road
Underneath the dirt I've never shown you
Thank you's at the top of my list
Of things I never told you

Thank you's at the top of my list
Of things I never told you
Things I never told you
