things you never say

You're as good as it gets if they looked outside All the boxes are checked and it seems all right But it isn't, something is missing You treat love like a language that's black and white If it ain't your way, then it's never right I can't hate you, but I blame you I know that you'll never change But I still wish you would say "I love you How you doing? How was your day? Did your friends go home? Did you have a good night? Hope you get to the gate, hope you have a safe flight I'll miss you when you coming back to stay? Did you get those flowers I sent to your place? Did it make you feel better when you had a bad day?" It's not the things you do It's the things you never say You show up on time on a holiday But you didn't call after my first date And I like him, but you'll never know that Does it cross your mind? Does it make you cry? Thinking 'bout the miles between you and I Like I do, but I'll never ask you, mm-mm, 'cause I know that you'll never change But I still wish you would say "I love you How you doing? How was your day? Did your friends go home? Did you have a good night? Hope you get to the gate, hope you have a safe flight I'll miss you when you coming back to stay? Did you get those flowers I sent to your place? Did it make you feel better when you had a bad day?" It's not the things you do It's the things you never say (Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh) (Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh) And I still hold on 'cause I hate goodbye And I know that people can change sometimes And I hope one day that you realize I don't want you gone, I just want you to try 'Cause I love you I just wish we were okay And I know sometimes that we make mistakes So I want you to know at the end of the day It's not the things you do It's the things you never say
