The Things I Never Said

[AARON]
It isn't easy to express what I feel inside
But that shouldn't come as a surprise to you.

[AARON & AARON'S MOTHER]
Haven't been the perfect mom
But please know that I tried
I did the best I could
and that's the best that I could do.

[AARON'S MOTHER]
Now facing a future that's uncertain
I cannot say what lies ahead
But I won't give up,
I'll face my fears, and fight back
year of uncried tears
And tell you all the things I never said.

[AARON]
All of the hours spent at work
Consumed with my career.

[AARON'S MOTHER]
I wouldn't blame you if you thought I didn't care.

[AARON]
Graduations that I missed
All the games I didn't cheer.

[AARON'S MOTHER]
I never told you then but how I wanted to be there.

[BOTH]
As thoughts of the past run through my memory
The choices I've made, the life I've led
An office on the highest floor it meant so much
But you mean more
That's one of many things...

[AARON]
So much in my life I took for granted
Life tucking my children into bed.

[AARON'S MOTHER]
My world was always spinning fast
And in an instant year have passed
And here I sit with so much left unsaid.

[BOTH]
I've always lived a world apart
But through it all you were my heart
That's one of many things of oh...
so many things... I never said.
