Lyric

If I could make one wish tonight

I'd go back to that day we met

To when your eyes were shining bright

Every time you looked at me like that

I was happy just to be by your side

I thought that was enough for you

Somewhere along the way, I lost sight

Of all the things you needed me to do

I took your love for granted

Never stopped to ask you why

I thought you'd always stay beside me

I never saw the sadness in your eyes

And while the days were passing by

Your smile was slowly fading

But I was too blind to realize

The love I had was breaking

If I could go back, I'd hold you tighter

I'd never let your lonely heart cry

I'd listen to every word you couldn't say

Instead of asking you to stay the same

I thought I was enough just being there

I thought your love would never disappear

But I was wrong, so wrong, and now I know

I lost the one I couldn't live without

If I could go back

I'd choose you all over again

You were never asking for too much

You only wanted to feel my love

But I became angry when you seemed unhappy

And blamed you for the distance between us

I made your pain into your fault

As if I had done nothing wrong

I was so sure of my own worth

I never saw how much I hurt you all along

I thought you would forgive me

No matter what I said or did

I never knew that every careless word

Was pushing you away a little bit

Now the silence fills this room

Where your laughter used to stay

And every memory of you

Is a price I have to pay

If I could go back, I'd hold you tighter

I'd never let your lonely heart cry

I'd listen to every word you couldn't say

Instead of turning all your tears away

I thought I was enough just being there

I thought your love would always wait for me

But I was wrong, so wrong, and now I know

I threw away the love that carried me

I'm staring at your favorite sofa

The place where you used to sit

And I can almost feel you beside me

But there's nothing left but this emptiness

How could I have been so foolish?

How could I not have known?

You were sitting right beside me

Yet you were already all alone

Now I would give anything

For one more chance to say

"I'm sorry for the love I failed to give

I'm sorry I pushed you away"

If I could go back, I'd hold you tighter

I'd look into your eyes and never turn away

I'd tell you every day how much I love you

And never make you wonder where you stand

I would never take your heart for granted

Never let my pride come between us again

But all I have are memories tonight

And all I can do is regret

I want to see you

I want to hold you

I want to tell you I'm sorry

But you're not here anymore

If I could make one wish tonight

I'd go back to the day we met

To when your eyes were shining bright

And love was all we had

I'd hold you close

And never let you go
