Oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh You were in college, workin' part time, waitin' tables Left a small town, never looked back I was a flight risk, with a fear of fallin
I am not the kind of girl Who should be rudely bargin' in on a white veil occasion. But you are not the kind of boy Who should be marrying the wrong girl
I guess you really did it this time Left yourself in your warpath Lost your balance on a tightrope Lost your mind tryin? to get it back Wasn?t it easier
Long were the nights when my days once revolved around you Counting my footsteps, praying the floor won't fall through, again My mother accused me
I still remember the look on your face Lit through the darkness at 1:58 The words that you whispered For just us to know You told me you loved me So why
