lyrics

If I were to tell you that I lost everything I had,
would you still want me?
And If I were to tell you who I am,
and to tell you what I've done still haunts me

And I know that you're a thousand miles away and it all seems so unreal but I'm trying to put my feet back on the ground
And I know I won't be convincing you to stay, but It's just what I feel
I just really liked having you around

In the morning time when you're at my door after driving 20 hours
In the ice and snow on a busy road and I just couldn't figure out
Why, oh, why you'd run to me
Why you'd grab my heart and flee
Why you'd laugh and why you'd cry
Why'd you have to say goodbye

If I were to tell you that I lost everything I ever was,
would you still want me?
and if I tell you that my mind is filled with so much uncertainty

And the moment that you looked away, there was a smile on my face
that you never got to see
And I packed my bags and hid myself away,
so when we hung out yesterday I just didn't know what to say

In the evening time when I needed more alcohol just to say all of the things I wanted to say to you before it was too late like
Why, oh, why you'd run to me
Why you'd grab my heart and flee
Why you'd laugh and why you'd cry
Why'd you have to say goodbye
