So this is what it feels like 
To be the one left behind 
To give it all you've got, then find
You've already changed your mind

And this is what it sounds like 
Crying on the bed that we both made
Waiting for a sign that you just can't give me 
Any kind of sign

I don't want to be here wide-awake
Clinging to a love that can't be saved
Hanging off the edge of every word 
That you say 

So I asked myself, "Do I love you so much
That I'm willing to let you go?"
At the tip of my tongue the answer was "yes"
But, at the bottom of my heat I'm wondering

Did I say that?
Did I say that?
Sometimes you know I over react
And what I say is not a matter of fact
I wish that I could take it all back 

And you know I'd drag myself through fire at your side 
And you know the gates of Heaven are surely open wide
And I need some sympathy here
And I need someone to call my own 
I'm standing in the light of my mistakes 
And begging you, "come home."

And I know you need some time to run and hide
But the truth is hard to swallow when you're choking on your pride

So I asked myself, "Do I love you so much 
That I'm willing to let you go?"
At the tip of my tongue the answer was "yes"
But, at the back of my mind I'm wondering

Did I say that?
Did I say that?
Sometimes you know I over react
And what I say is not a matter of fact
I wish that I could take it all back 
But I said that

And I wish I could take it all back 

And I need some sympathy here 
And I want a love to call my own 
I want to take you in the back seat now 
And slowly drive you home 

And I know you need some time to run and hide 
But the truth is hard to swallow when you're 
Choking on your pride 
I don't want to be this wide-awake

Fighting for a love that I can't save
And hanging off the edge of every word you say 
Knowing that it might make me cry 
I don't want to be this complicating
You can drag it out but I'll be waiting 
I stumbled on "I love you" tonight 
But it sounded like goodbye 

Did I say that?
Did I say that?
Did I tell you that I loved you cause if
Would have been a matter of fact

Did I say that?
This time I'm not letting go
Did I say that?
This time I'll have and I'll hold 
Did I tell you that I loved you cause it
Would have been a matter of fact
Did I say that?
This time I'm walking through fire 
Did I say that?
This time I'll feed your desire
Did I say that?
This time I'll stand by your side 
Did I say that?
This time I will be your pride
Did I say that?
This time I'm not letting go 
Did I say that?
This time I'll have and I'll hold
Did I say that?
This time I'm walking through fire
Did I say that?
And I wish that I could take it all back 

So this is what it feels like 
To be the one left behind
To give it all you've got then find 
That you've already changed your mind
