Girl, I've been thinking a lot of
'bout who we could have been
if i was back home
just chillin with you and all my friends
But dear I'm gone
and that's the lousy truth
For the past 3 years
I swear i've been a better man
then who I've become
i know i know i know I let you down
But I've been gone
for too damn long
So if you go away right now
then i can guarantee
that i won't break your heart
But if you go and stay then baby
i will hope and pray that you will run away
Cause dear it breaks my heart
to see you here
So shine outward not inward
You've been a selfish little girl
for the past 3 years
I've been through more than you could ever know
and God I don't want you to know
what I have been through
cause you just wouldn't understand
you're just a girl with some issues
as bad as it may sound
But you're the girl
who's been driving me mad
So if you go away right now
then i can guarantee
that i won't break your heart
But if you go and stay then baby
i will hope and pray that you will run away
Cause dear it breaks my heart
to see you here
So go to school in chicago
find a new boy, a new life
a whole new set of friends
Cause all that i'll ever do is break your heart
and dear it breaks my heart
to see you here
And dear it breaks my heart
to see you here
But just so you know...
I've been thinking a lot of
'bout who we could've been
if i was back home
just chillin with you and all my friends
But dear I'm gone
and that's the lousy truth
