I Want You to Know
Unspoken Regrets: Chantal Kreviazuk's Poignant Plea for Understanding
Lyrics
I could you feel you
I could feel your presence
You were there
You were there with me
And I could hold you
I could physically embrace you
But you're not there
But you're not physically present
I, I'm gonna wait
I am determined to wait
I, I'm gonna wait
Reiteration of the determination to wait
And I'm gonna wait
Continued expression of patience
I just want you to know
Expressing the desire for the other person to be aware
I want you to know
Reiteration of the desire for the other person's awareness
All that I have is
All I possess emotionally
All that I forgot to say
Regret for not expressing everything
I want you to know
Reaffirming the desire for the other person to know
I didn't go
Clarifying that they didn't leave
All that I have is
All the emotions they possess
All that made you run away
Everything that caused the person to distance themselves
I could see you
Reiteration of sensing the other person's presence
You were there
The other person was there
And I could hear you
They could hear the other person
But you're not there
But the other person is not present now
I, I'm gonna wait
Expressing determination to wait
I, I'm gonna wait
Reiterating the commitment to wait
And I'm gonna wait
Continued expression of patience
I just want you to know
Desire for the other person to be informed
I want you to know
Repetition of the desire for the other person to know
All that I have is
All the emotions they possess
All that I forgot to say
Regret for not expressing everything
I want you to know
Reiterating the desire for the other person to be aware
I didn't go
Emphasizing that they did not leave
All that I have is
All the emotions they possess
All that made you run away
Everything that caused the person to distance themselves
I, I, I, I'm gonna wait
Repeated expression of determination to wait
I, I'm gonna wait
Reiteration of the commitment to wait
I just want you to know
Expressing the desire for the other person to be informed
I want you to know
Repetition of the desire for the other person to know
All that I have is
All the emotions they possess
All that I forgot to say
Regret for not expressing everything
I want you to know
Desire for the other person to be informed
I didn't go
Emphasizing that they did not leave
All that I have is
All the emotions they possess
All that made you run away
Everything that caused the person to distance themselves
All that made you run away
