Hindsight

You put the apple in my eye

Dried all the tears that I have cried

Talk me down and pick me up

When you held me in your arms I felt good enough

That was back when I couldn't cry

Did everything for you but try

Found a note you wrote on my birthday

It made me miss being your baby

But I'm seeing things so much clearer

Got a new song in my mouth without the fear

And in its place there's love and that's why we're here

Oh, hindsight turns years into a mirror

Tried to shed these feelings

Like, "Are you the one for me?"

If we could speak then I'd take heed

'Cause I'm better off than I used to be

But I'm seeing things so much clearer

Got a new song in my mouth without the fear

And in its place there's love and that's why we're here

Hindsight turns years into a mirror

You put the apple in my eye

Dried all the tears that I have cried

Talk me down and pick me up

When you held me in your arms I felt good enough

But that was back when I couldn't cry

Did everything for you but try
