A Long Time Ago

I fell in love with you long before I knew

What it meant to give everything up

I was a rolling stone, rolling my way along

Till you came and made sense out of everything

But you couldn't wait

I couldn't promise you anything

If it was all a mistake

Then I guess we're both to blame

I could've been so many things

But it would never be enough for you

I was the one you counted all

But I was never the one for you

Now I know

I lost you a long time ago

City of strangers, out of danger

In your arms I was half awake, half asleep

Grab a hold to what I've got

Regretting all that I am not

I couldn't be the one who'd stand by your side

If it was all a mistake

Then I guess we're both to blame

I could've been so many things

But it would never be enough for you

I was the one you counted all

But I was never the one for you

Now I know

I lost you a long time ago

Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh

I hold no grudges

I come bearing forgiveness

Only love, only love

Even if it's not enough

Only love, only love

Even if it's not enough

Now I know

I lost you a long time ago

I could've been so many things

But it would never be enough for you

I was the one you counted all

But I was never the one for you

Now I know

I lost you a long time ago
