Things I Wish I Would've Said

Katy Nichole's song reflects on regret and longing after a painful breakup. The lyrics describe seeing an old photo and wanting to reach out, apologizing for hurtful words and wishing for reconciliation. The song explores themes of love, loss, and the hope for healing and forgiveness in a broken relationship. While it touches on emotional pain and the desire to make amends, it does not explicitly reference God, faith, or Christian themes. The focus is on human relationships and personal regret rather than spiritual content.

Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team

I saw you in a picture on my phone

Guess I didn?t quite erase them all

And for the first time in a while

I thought about giving you a call


Cause I love you and I miss you and I need you

I?m so sorry for the words I used to hurt you

Time keeps going by, but time just won?t let me forget

All the things I wish I would have said.


Last words that sound like slamming doors

Tears we never saw each other cry

And I thought it was for the best

Now I can?t find the good in that goodbye.


Cause I love you and I miss you and I need you

I?m so sorry for the words I used to hurt you

Time keeps going by, but time just won?t let me forget

All the things I wish I would have said.


What if I said I don?t want to fight

What if neither one of us was right

Would we find some healing hidden in these wounds

Would we find some hope in me and you.


Cause I love you and I miss you and I need you

I?m so sorry for the words I used to hurt you

Time keeps going by, but time just won?t let me forget

All the things I wish I would have said.
