There's something you need to know

Expressing the speaker's intent to share important information.

There's something I should have said

Long before today

Indicating that the revelation should have occurred long ago.

You may want to take a seat

Suggesting the listener prepare for unsettling news.

I wish there was a better way

Expressing a desire for a more favorable way to convey the message.

But this is all I have

Conveying a sense of limitation, indicating the speaker has no better option.

Remember the dreams we had

Recalling shared dreams as a reminder of shared experiences.

Remember the nights that we talked until the sun came up

Reminiscing about nights of deep conversation until sunrise.

There's been a change of plans

Announcing a change in previously made plans or expectations.

It's hard to anticipate

Highlighting the difficulty of predicting the future.

Every little thing

Emphasizing the challenge of dealing with every small detail in life.

I tried, I tried to paint the sun over every cloud that came across our sky

Describing efforts to overcome challenges, specifically using metaphorical language.

This time, this time before I knew I had lost control, The sun had snuck on by

Reflecting on a realization of losing control despite efforts.

Sometimes we slip, sometimes we fall

Acknowledging human imperfection and the tendency to make mistakes.

You've waited long enough

Addressing the listener, suggesting patience has its limits.

It's not fair to keep this thought

Stating the unfairness of withholding a certain thought or information.

From you anymore

Expressing the need to share the concealed information with the listener.

I know you're strong enough

Acknowledging the listener's strength, possibly in preparation for difficult news.

You're much stronger than I give

Admitting underestimation of the listener's strength and giving due credit.

I give you credit for

Giving recognition and appreciation to the listener.

Remember the songs we sang

Recalling shared musical experiences as a form of nostalgia.

Remember the poems that we wrote until our hands got tired

Remembering joint creative endeavors, emphasizing shared history.

I'll try to explain myself

Expressing an intention to clarify and provide more information.

Please let me start with this

Requesting permission to begin an explanation with a fundamental statement.

I Love You

Conveying a powerful and emotional declaration of love.

I tried, I tried to paint the sun over every cloud that came across our sky

Reiterating the metaphor of painting the sun, emphasizing effort despite challenges.

This time, this time before I knew I had lost control, The sun had snuck on by

Revisiting the theme of losing control, possibly indicating a recurring struggle.

Sometimes we slip, sometimes we fall

Recognizing the inevitability of mistakes and acknowledging the fallibility of humans.

Sometimes we let, let go of it all

Acknowledging the act of letting go, possibly referring to acceptance or release.

This time I'll say, I'll say goodbye

Concluding with a farewell, signaling the end of a significant chapter or relationship.
