Lyrics

If You Could Look Inside My Heart
words and music by Ryan Rothmeyer Copyright 2016
12:24 on a Saturday night, wishing you were here now holding me tight
hurt never felt this real before you closed the door
You needed me to show you more than I did
I just couldn't utter the words from my lips
playing the game safe, I still lost
I'm down on my knees, praying to God you'll see the best of me
Chorus
If you could look inside my heart, you'd see it's tearing me apart
the way I held back all the love I had and left you in the dark
I didn't have the words to say that would make you want to stay
you are the air I breathe, you're all I need, please come back to me
Verse
Sinking deeper into regret, thinking back to the time when we met
when our love was strong, when nothing could go wrong
what can I say that you haven't heard before
I'm fool now I know that you needed more than I was able to give
Chorus
All the tears you've cried , all the pain inside
all the days that I've made a mess of you
now I know what to do, ohh
Chorus (instrumental)
