A rose in a box, wrapped up in dreams

A card that explains how much your love means

A table for two with soft candlelight

The words "I love you," somewhere in the night



I meant to do that

Does that mean a thing

If you wanted songs

Then I meant to sing

I'd give you the world

If you'd give mine back

What I didn't do

I meant to do that



Late in the night, nothing to say

Maybe a call to talk anyway

A letter or two with some words that rhyme

To promise you love, for now and all time



I meant to do that

Does that mean a thing

If you wanted songs

Then I meant to sing

I'd give you the world

If you'd give mine back

What I didn't do

I meant to do that



Hold onto the love you gave until the end of time

And love you more everyday, until you know that



I meant to do that

Does that mean a thing

If you wanted songs

Then I meant to sing

I'd give you the world

If you'd give mine back

What I didn't do

I meant to do that

What I didn't do

I meant to do that
