You're all alone I did this I got no one else to blame You didn't know I was a risk And it's such a crying shame How you gave me all of you and wanted nothing else from me But to make some time for you but all I made you was lonely
[Chorus:] I couldn't see But now I know That I acted selfishly I should've known That I let you down Caused you so much misery Forever to bleed [x4]
I should've been there [x4]
All of the times You used to cry Because I would let you down I'm losing time I should've tried A little more to be around But I didn't know that you were hurting, I was just too blind Only thing I know for certain: another you I'll never find
[Chorus:] I couldn't see But now I know That I acted selfishly I should've known That I let you down Caused you so much misery Forever to bleed [x4]
I should've been there [x4]
I'm filled with regret I'm gonna tip and sew myself in misery Now in your life I'll take more time No more yearning without me But it hurts to think of you all by yourself but now I see And I apologize for all the times I left you home waiting for me
[Chorus:] I couldn't see But now I know That I acted selfishly I should've known That I let you down Caused you so much misery Forever to bleed [x4]
I should've been there [x4]
I'm gonna be there (I'm gonna be there) [x3] I'm gonna be there I'm gonna be there (I'm gonna be there) [x3] I'm gonna be there
