Lyrics

Why do all those country songs
Wanna break my heart?
All the words keep tellin' me
The reasons we're apart

Now I know all the things
I didn't say or do
I realize it's all my fault
But I kept blamin' you

And that old sayin's true
you hear it everyday
You don't know what you got
'Til it's gone away

Chorus

But I knew when she left
That it was over
And I keep thinkin' of the words I should have told her

Those three little words
I hardly ever said
I'd tell her a thousand times
If I could have her back again

I love you...I love you

You never even turned around
As you walked away
You just left me standin' there without a thing to say

Now I'm sittin' in this empty room starin' at the wall
Waitin' as the hours pass
And hopin' you would call

I made that one mistake
And let you get away
I've got to live with that
Until my dyin' day

Chorus
