How did I lose you

[intro] How did I lose you, I was so blind to see. I didn't let you be, who you wanted to be. I took you for granted, I rolled my dice, my luck ran out, and now I'm paying the price.

[Verse] I just want the best for you, but I can't be that man. All the love i let slip through- like grains of desert sand. If i could turn back time, oh how i would chang my tune, talked to you softer, kissed you more under the moon.

[Pre Chorus] you deserve a love of a lifetime, pure and bright.

Not this cold empty space where we use to ignite. I should have talked to you sweeter, let my heart be free. Instead I built these walls, pushed you far away from me.

[Chorus] i should have listened,

Should have opened my ears. Your laughter was the music, I let disappear. You deserve a life, a love of a lifetime, but I was stubborn to see all the signs.

[Verse] we belong together ,like stars in the sky.

Yet here i am, breaking as I watch you say goodbye. I should have listened longer, gave you what you crave, but selfish pride took over, it's me that I couldn't save.

[Bridge] How did I lose you? I was so blind to see. I didn't let you be who you wanted to be. You needed more, a love that's divine, i should have given you more of my time. You deserve a love of a lifetime, that's pure and refined.

i want the best for you, but it ain't me. Regrets whisper softly, setting you free. I wish I had loved you with all my heart. But now I'm alone, wishing for a fresh start.

[Outro]i think of myself as a mighty big man, but without you, I can't even stand. My intelligence always got me through, but it was my ignorance that lost you. Life goes on, I'll set you free, i never thought this would happen to me. I never thought this would happen to me. [ softly talk] never thought this would happen to me.
