Lyrics
So much she wanted to tell you
Expressing a desire to communicate with someone
But she was so afraid to say
Fear preventing her from expressing herself
If she had made her feelings known
Regret for not revealing her feelings
Then she might not be all alone
Fear of loneliness due to unspoken emotions
If only courage she had had
Reflecting on the lack of courage
Perhaps she would not be so sad
Sadness possibly avoided with more courage
With emotions pounding her heart
Intense emotions causing inner turmoil
This one sided love tore her apart
Painful experience of unreciprocated love
Tears washed away dreams of sweet love
Tears representing the disappointment in love
Just like heavy rains from above
Comparing tears to heavy rains, emphasizing intensity
So much she wanted to tell you
Repetition of desire to communicate
But she was so afraid to say
Persistent fear hindering communication
Though maybe bliss was hers to take
Contemplating missed opportunities for happiness
Rejection would have meant heartache
Avoiding rejection to prevent heartbreak
Now her prospects don't look so bright
Pessimistic view of future prospects
Hesitation blocked pure love light
Hesitation preventing the expression of pure love
With emotions pounding her heart
Reiteration of emotional turmoil
This one sided love tore her apart
Continued pain from one-sided love
Tears washed away dreams of sweet love
Tears symbolizing shattered dreams of love
Just like heavy rains from above
Intense emotional experience compared to heavy rains
So much she wanted to tell you
Repetition of unexpressed desires
But she was so afraid to say
Perpetual fear preventing honest expression
You didn't know what could you do
Addressing the lack of awareness on the other side
She only wanted to be with you
Expressing a simple desire to be with the person
With emotions pounding her heart
Reiteration of emotional turmoil
This one sided love tore her apart
Continued pain from unrequited love
Tears washed away dreams of sweet love
Tears as a recurring theme of dashed hopes
Just like heavy rains from above
Intense emotional experience likened to heavy rains
So much she wanted to tell you
Persistent desire to express suppressed feelings
But she was so afraid to say
Perpetual fear hindering the expression of emotions
A love destined for many years
Reflection on a love that could have lasted years
Instead all ending full of tears
Reality of a sad ending instead of a happy one
And as her train slowly pulled away
The departure and separation from a soulmate
She left her soulmate behind that day
Leaving behind the person meant to be together
