Words Got In the Way

We wanted to work our troubles out, with the things that we would say. But every time we tried to talk, the words got in the way. The more we tried to right the wrongs, the more the problems stayed. And even though we tried so hard, the words got in the way. We never solved our differences, so together we didn't stay. Our love couldn't over come, when words got in the way. Today we live so far apart, our feelings we couldn't convey. We just couldn't communicate, cause the words got in the way. Now I wait to hear from her, on those rare but relished days. And we laugh about days gone by, when the words got in the way.
