Lyrics for Tell You Something (Nana's Reprise)

Get so caught up everyday Trying to keep it all together While the time just slips away See I know nothing lasts forever Imagine there was no tomorrow Imagine that I couldn't see your face There'd be no limit to my sorrow So all I can say I wanna tell you something, give you something Show you in so many ways 'Cause it would all mean nothing if I don't say something Before it all goes away Don't wanna wait to bring you flowers Waste another hour, let alone another day I'm gonna tell you something, show you something Won't wait 'til it's too late I can't wait, I can't wait, I won't wait, I don't wanna wait I can't wait, I can't wait, I won't wait, I don't wanna wait I won't wait 'til it's too late Just a simple conversation (sation) Just a moment is all it takes (yeah) I wanna be there just to listen (I wanna be here) And I don't wanna hesitate (oh no) Imagine there was no tomorrow (imagine) Imagine that I couldn't see your face (your face) There'd be no limit to my sorrow (oh no) 'Cause there is nothing that can fill this space Oh did I put it off for too long? (Too long) I didn't say all that I had to say (say) I wanna take the time to right the wrongs Before we get to that place, ooh I wanna tell you something, give you something Show you in so many ways 'Cause it would all mean nothing if I don't say something Before it all goes away Don't wanna wait to bring you flowers Waste another hour, let alone another day I'm gonna tell you something, show you something Won't wait 'til it's too late Just lean on my shoulder It's not over 'til it's over Don't worry 'bout it 'Cause I'm gonna make sure I'm gonna get stronger, yeah I don't wanna wait until the storm There's something wrong And now you're gone And I can't find ya I wanna tell you something, give you something Show you in so many ways 'Cause it would all mean nothing if I don't say something Before it all goes away Don't wanna wait to bring you flowers Waste another hour, let alone another day I'm gonna tell you something, show you something Won't wait 'til it's too late I wanna tell you something, give you something Show you in so many ways 'Cause it would all mean nothing if I don't say something Before it all goes away Don't wanna wait to bring you flowers Waste another hour, let alone another day I'm gonna tell you something, show you something Won't wait 'til it's too late I can't wait, I can't wait, I won't wait, I don't wanna wait (I won't wait 'til it's too late) I can't wait, I can't wait, I won't wait, I don't wanna wait (No, won't wait, no no) I can't wait, I can't wait, I won't wait, I don't wanna wait (I won't wait 'til it's too late) I can't wait, I can't wait, I won't wait, I don't wanna wait (No, no, no, no, no) No, no, no I can't wait, I won't wait No, no I can't wait, I won't wait
