Verse 1

alone.

at home.

I was wrong but then I didn't understand, what you were trying to say to me.

I thought that you were busy making other plans, none of those including me.

But then I always had, too many insecurities.

Why didn't I just decide to let it be?

Chorus

I never should have walked away.

I should've been there for you babe.

I know I handled this all wrong.

I swear, I didn't know.

Things are never gonna be the same,

and I don't want no one to blame.

I've gone and left you torn, baby(Well I didn't know)

Verse 2

I remember it so clear when I got the call,

it was the hospital on the phone.

They told me how you slipped and had a nasty fall,

and would I come and take you home.

Now that was bad enough but they had more to say,

felt like the words came out so slow.

"I'm afraid she lost the baby, but she'll be ok."

and I didn't even know.

But now I see I should've been there from the start,

instead of letting it all fall apart.

Repeat Chorus

Bridge

I didn't know what was wrong.

Girl I didn't know.

Verse 3

I hope you know I never meant to hurt you girl,

but I was way too blind to see,

that you were only trying to protect me girl,

I wish you'd had more faith in me.

Now I realize that I've let you down,

and you have reasons to act that way.

I thought that you were cheating when you weren't around,

thats why I had to walk away.

But girl looking back, in spite of all that we've been through,

I'm asking is there still a chance for me and you?

Repeat Chorus X2
