I'm Sorry

I’ll never forget the feeling I had that first night

We never exactly locked eyes but I felt our world’s collide

And I embraced the chemistry as it tore it’s way through my body

And we spent hours and hours and hours in each other’s company

As the weeks progressed

I got this aching in my chest

I felt as if I was meant to be with you

And everything finally made sense

But when the time finally arrived

Where you were done with meeting my eyes

I wasn’t surprised to find

I wasn’t everything you searched for

So I put pressure on myself

To explain why I was the way I was

I feared everything about us

But you’ve heard this same story more than once

I hate the fact that you’re now gone

Another lost one to add to the books

And now I regret how I deprived you of what you deserved

I guess all I can be is honest with you

I’m sorry I couldn’t be everything you want

Now every moment we spend apart I spend missing you

Because my worries pushed you away and I regret that too

And I could never face up to you after tonight

Because I once saw the stars in your eyes and now that’s all gone

And I’m feeling so empty as I say goodnight for the last time

Because I left it up to you, I guess this is goodbye

I’ll never forget the feeling I had that first night

And it’s making this harder because I still feel it tonight

Never again will I look deep into your eyes or feel our worlds collide

Because I wasn’t the one you wanted by your side
