Let me start this from the day we met
You looked so beautiful, I never will forget
Then you opened up your eyes, looked at me and kinda smiled
I was scared, but still happy at the same time
I never wanted us to be a superficial family
But in the end it was the only thing we could be
Angie, I'm sorry I wasn't right for you
Just what did you expect for me to do?
You know that I would have done anything for you
I sometimes think about how things could be
If you would've took a chance and moved out here with me
We'd cruise along the 101 in the California sun
Sing Descendents songs and have ourselves lots of fun
Stay out drinking really late stumble home from lower State
Treat every day like it would be our first date
Angie, I'm sorry that you weren't right for me
I guess that it just wasn't meant to be
I quit pretending you were in love with me
