You Knew, You Just Didn’t Say

Don’t act like you didn’t know

You just didn’t say it

You played it light from the start

Like it wasn’t that deep

But you knew what it was

You just didn’t speak

You kept things open-ended

Never clear, never closed

Left it just enough

So it felt like it could grow

You don’t say it out loud

But you move like you know

You knew, you just didn’t say

You felt it but let it fade

You kept it right in between

Never wrong, never seen

You knew, you just didn’t say

Let it drift, let it change

Now it’s gone, now it’s late

You knew, you just didn’t say

You don’t like confrontation

So you let things slide

You let silence do the talking

While I tried to read the signs

You could’ve said it early

Could’ve made it clear

But you let it play out

Like I’d figure it from here

You didn’t lie, that’s true

But you didn’t tell the truth

You knew, you just didn’t say

You felt it but let it fade

You kept it right in between

Never wrong, never seen

You knew, you just didn’t say

Let it drift, let it change

Now it’s gone, now it’s late

You knew, you just didn’t say

It’s not what you did

It’s what you didn’t do

You left it in the air

Like I’d just assume

You knew, you just didn’t say

And that’s how it stayed

Right there in the middle

Till it faded away

You knew, you just didn’t say

Now I see it clear

You don’t have to explain

I already hear

You didn’t say it

That said enough
