I had no reason to let her go
But I can’t undo what has been done.
And for a long time I kept believing
I’d be glad the day she found someone.

Someone again who would hold her close,
Someone again who would hold her tight.
Said in the play-words of my speech
Someone who knows how to love and treat her right

Ain’t a man who loved you right when I was wrong.
(Right when I was - right when I was wrong)
I’ve been trying to make you happy for so long.

I had no reason to let you know
About the things I feel inside
But I can’t help sharing my thoughts with you.
It didn’t hurt when I was leaving.
It twisted when you cried only to break when you found somebody new.

Ain’t a man who loved you right when I was wrong.
(Right when I was - right when I was wrong)
I’ve been trying to make you happy for so long.
(Happy for so - happy for so long)

In my head I hear your whisper asking me to call.
I know I must be fantasizing with my back against the wall.
I can hear it in your voice and it is begging me [bad word] 
I thought I’d find somebody else but now I know you are the one.

Maybe there’s a chance,
Maybe there is a possibility.
Maybe there’s a way that you can learn to forgive me.
Maybe it’s not too late for me to show you I was wrong.
Maybe I can bring you back to where you have always belonged.

Ain’t a man who loved you right when I was wrong.
And ever since that day it’s been so hard to carry on.
I’ve been trying to make you happy for so long.
But maybe our love can live to see another dawn.
