What I Meant to Say

What I Meant to Say by Trista Rhodes [Verse 1] You never rush to answer me, But you’re the first to hear my doubt. You don’t pretend to have the map, But you walk with me when I’m without. You’re the voice inside my silence, The anchor in my storm, And though the world may never see, With you, I feel reborn. [Chorus] You’re the person I like to talk to most, When the night gets long, and I feel like a ghost. You listen without needing to speak, My best friend, strong where I feel weak. We laugh like we’ll never run out of time, You mirror back the light that’s mine. [Verse 2] Some days we say so little, Yet everything feels known. Even when I’m far from you, I never feel alone. You never try to fix me, You just understand my pain, And in your eyes, I’m not too much, I’m just a little rain. [Chorus] You’re the person I like to talk to most, When I’m losing heart, when I need you close. You pull the truth from behind my eyes, My best friend, no need for disguise. We dream like the world is wide and clear, You make the quiet feel like cheer. [Bridge] You’re not the loudest in the crowd, But you’re the calm I seek, And though I never say it out loud, You make my soul speak. [Final Chorus] You’re the person I like to talk to most, Even if someday, we become a ghost. You live in the rhythm of my thought, The best friend every heart has sought. And if the words ever fall away, You’ll still hear what I meant to say.
