[Verse 1]
C G
Hard to believe I won't see you again
Am Em7
We were just fighting when winter began
F
The coldness of our words
G C G
Competing with the wind from the north
[Verse 2]
C G
Still they make me shiver, but in a very different way
Am Em7
The pages of the calendar kept turning away
F
I have some better words now
G C G
But it's too late to say them to you
[Verse 3]
C G
My dream of all dreams, and my hope of all hopes
Am Em7
Is only to tell you and make sure you know
F G C G
How much I love you and how much I always did
[Verse 4]
C
And yes, I know you loved me
G
I could see it in your eyes
Am Em7
And it was in your struggle and it was in your mind
F G C G
And it was in the smile you gave me when I was a kid
[Chorus]
C Am G
Feels like no one understands
C Am G F G
And now my only chance to talk to you is
Am G F
Through my prayers
F G Am C
I only wanted to tell you I cared
[Verse 3]
C G
Every night after and every day since
Am Em7
I found myself crying when the memory hits
F
Sometimes it knocks me down
G C G
Sometimes I can just put it away
C G
Down in my mind where I don't care to go
Am Em7
The pain of a lesson is letting me know
F G
If you have love in your heart
C G
Let it show while you can
[Chorus]
C Am G
Feels like no one understands
C Am G F G
And now my only chance to talk to you is
Am G F
Through my prayers
F G Am C
I only wanted to tell you I cared
[Outro]
F G Am C
I only wanted to tell you I cared
