lyrics

Tired but I simply can't sleep
My hand on my heart but it keeps skipping beats
I know there is a man in my place
He put a ring on your finger and showed I'm a waste of your time
Time passed and proved everyone right
If I'm in the wrong, then why do I feel like I let go of the love of my life?

I should have fought for you when I had the chance

I took you for granted and let you walk out on the home we built
What the hell am I supposed to do without you?
I should have fought for you when I had the chance

I didn't see you when you were here
And now I see you everywhere

I wear a disguise protecting my pride, pretending that I am happy
You abandoned my world, had a baby girl, there's no coming back for us
Your daughter is perfect, she has your eyes
But winter is colder when I fall asleep without you at my side

Winter will pass and I may relapse, but it's better to have you and lose you than to never have loved you at all
There is a hole in my heart
