When I wrote you that letter, you'd already made up your mind
All my words were written in vain
When I called you up that day, I was only calling up to say hello
But goodbye, was the word that you've been thinking bout for days

I didn't know that you were going to leave me,
I wish I knew the way to make [bad word] home
What can I do if this is right for you

I have not been perfect for you,
Although I think I was back at the start
You have no more patience for me
So now I guess well both just drift apart

All those times I wasn't there,
The times I thought it didn't care
I hope you can believe I thought of you
cause you were everything I needed
Ive been selfish and so self-absorbed
I thought that you'll be waiting when I reached the other side
Last night I put my arms around another womens waist
The touch was sweet but bitter while we danced
And great love can bring greater pain
I hope I fall in love again
What can I do, if this is right for you

I have not been perfect for you,
I like to think I was back at the start
You have no more patience for me
So now I guess well both just drift apart

I want the best for you and now I realize that isnt me
I havent been the man you need, I wish Id been able to be
Im sorry that I did not give you everything that you desired
And that Ive made you feel upset when you just made me feel inspired

I have not been perfect for you,
I wish we could go back and just restart
You have no more patience for me
So now I guess well both just drift apart
Drift apart
