There a hole the size of a cruel word

In a wounded heart somewhere that's learning to hide the pain

There's a thorn stuck in the conscience of

Someone who spoke a word in anger

And they can't wash away the stain, sorry's such a hard word to say



CHORUS

But while it's still called today, won't somebody make it right

Before the day slips into night and the moments waste away

While it is still called today, we've got to say the words

That are longing to be heard 'cause tomorrow may be too late

Go on and say what you need to say while it is still called today





There's a girl who's waiting day after day

To hear her daddy say "I love you," now the days have turned to years

There's a wall that silence has turned to stone

Between a man and woman, she's holding back the tears

And he's holding on to his fears





(Chorus)





BRIDGE

'Cause there's a time when the sun goes down

And the flowers are laid on the grave

Will the tears that fall to the ground

Be the tears of regret for the words someone didn't say





(Chorus)
