Lyric
Maybe you were right, Maybe I could have changedSittin’ here alone tonight thinkin’ ’bout a lot of things What’s a man to say when all the questions start Hell I know deep down inside my broken heartCould’ve tried just a little bit harderKissed you just a little bit sweeter Held on just a little bit longer Dug down just a little bit deeper Let the world revolve around you And give you the stars above Loved you just enough to make you stay And I’d lost you anywayI hate it when it’s like this, baby it’s like that nowNothing I can say to you, you even care to talk about How you gonna dress it up, wrap it in a pretty bow When it’s gone, it’s gone for good, baby at least I knowCould’ve tried just a little bit harderKissed you just a little bit sweeter Held on just a little bit longer Dug down just a little bit deeper Let the world revolve around you And give you the stars above Loved you just enough to make you stay And I’d lost you anywayLet the world revolve around youAnd given you the stars above Loved you just enough to make you stay And I’d lost you anyway
