I think back and realize
I never said sorry
For all the promises I couldn't keep
For the words I should have said
But failed to communicate
For the peace you deserved
The love you should have felt
I hope this isn't too late
Do I still have your attention?
I know this won't be easy
But let me try
I don't want you walking away
Not hearing what I had to say
And what you deserved to know
I love you, I really do
You are my safe place to land
My home and cover from the harsh realities of life
I could escape because I had you
Now that you're leaving
I finally realize
I took you for granted
I made you feel like you didn't matter
I sold my peace for pain
I gave you away
Where there was no promise of a future
If you would still have me
I want to make this work
I want to give us another chance
I'll come back to you
Say you'll have me once more
Don't let me go
I had your hand in mine
But then I gave you up
I want to come home
Let me come home
Take back the words you spoke
Don't give this up yet
I failed you, I failed us
But that's on me
I want to make this right
Help me make this right
I promise not to let go
You won't have to worry this time
All I have to show is real
I give you my word
It will be different this time
I hurt you bad
You told me your story
And I became the villain in ours
How can I make you see?
I never meant to hurt you
This wasn't a game to me
How do I explain?
It meant nothing to me
I was weak, I betrayed your love and your trust
I let you down and I won't lie
You have every right to be mad
Take me back, please
I can't imagine life without you
I need you, you complete me
Say you'll stay, stay with me
