What I Really Meant to Say
It was a nice breezy summer evening as Kim walked along Waikiki Beach. Her long brown hair was flowing behind her, as the water bit at her legs. She was watching people gather around their friends and families.
She was slowly turning around to head home when a guy came out of the water a few feet in front of her. Her breath caught in her throat when he turned to face her. "No it couldn't be." She thought.
When he started to jog over to her, she knew without a doubt that it was Tommy. "Hey Kim, it's been a while. How are you?"
She smiled and replied, "Just peachy"
Verse 1
It
took me by surprise
When I saw you standin' there
Close enough
to touch
Breathin' the same air
You asked me how I'd been
I
guess that's when I smiled and said just fine
Oh, but baby I was
lyin'
'Gees Kim nice answer and you accompanied it with a very cheesy grin.' She thought to herself as she was staring at Tommy. He had filled out very well; he still wore his hair long and neatly pulled back. He had a very nice physique about him.
"What are you doing here?" He asked her.
"I moved here four years ago, right after the pan globals. This is my favorite spot. What on earth are you doing here?"
"I came here on vacation. I needed to get away from racing for a little while; it was just wearing me out doing that along with helping Jason and Rocky with the dojo."
"Did you bring Kat with you?"
He smiled sadly and shook his head. "No I didn't."
"Oh I thought that you guys were together."
"She's with Jason now. They are going to get married in a while. Things just didn't work out between us. But that doesn't matter because I never really got over you."
They just stood there looking at each other for a couple of minutes. Kim was still in shock from seeing him. It had been five years to the date that she had sent that horrible letter to him stating that she had found someone else. When infact she never did find anyone else, she had only said that to free Tommy because she thought that he was falling for Kat, and she had only wanted the best for him even if it meant sacrificing her happiness.
Chorus
What I
really meant to say
Is I'm dyin' here inside
And I miss you
more each day
There's not a night I haven't cried
And baby,
here's the truth
I'm still in love with you
(And, that's what I
really meant to say)
"Well Kim it was great to see you, keep in touch." Tommy said as he smiled and extended his hand.
Taking his hand in hers she replied, "You to Tommy, don't be bashful."
As she stood there watching him walk away she felt as though her heart was breaking in half. She held back her tears, so she could hold on to her pride, wondering if he would ever know that she still loved him.
Verse Two
And as
you walked away
The echo of my words
Cut just like a knife
Cut
so deep it hurt
I held back the tears
Held on to my pride and
watched you go
I wonder if you'll ever know
As Tommy walked further away, she became very distraught. She had wanted to tell him so bad what she was feeling. She wanted to scream out lout that she was so sorry for everything that has happened. That she still loved him with every beat of her heart, she cried each night because she missed him so much.
Chorus
What I
really meant to say
Is I'm dyin' here inside
And I miss you
more each day
There's not a night I haven't cried
And baby,
here's the truth
I'm still in love with you
(And, that's what I
really meant to say)
Finally she couldn't take it anymore. "Tommy!" She screamed as loud as she could while she was running towards him.
Tommy stopped dead in his tracts when he heard Kim scream for him. He turned around and to his surprise saw her running towards him.
"Tommy" she whispered as she fell into his arms.
"What is it Kim?"
She looked up into his eyes and kissed him with all the passion that she had in her. She grabbed his hand and looked deep into his chocolate brown eyes. "Tommy what I really meant to say."
Verse three
What I
really meant to say That's what I really meant to say
Is I'm really not that strong
No matter how
I try
I'm still holdin' on
And here's the honest truth
I'm
still in love with you
And, that's what I really meant to
say
That's what I really
meant to say
