I was wrong.
I was selfish.
I was thinking only of myself.
I was scared.
I never listened.
Shut you down before you had the chance.
PRE-CHORUS I:
But in your absence, I did realize
that, all those times, I was living a lie.
And it pains me to say this
but I must admit you were right.
CHORUS:
How would we know if we don't even try?
How would we know if we turn a blind eye?
If we keep on avoiding, then how would we know?
How can our love ever show?
You are brave.
I can't believe that you're not afraid.
(I was once scared.)
You've recognized your mistake.
You've restored my faith in love.
PRE-CHORUS II:
Because in your absence, I sank so low.
I felt bruised and broken like your most hated foe.
But I'm glad I didn't give up.
Gave you space, did not let you go.
CHORUS.
So where do we begin?
Can we start over, all over again?
Forget what happened. It's time to make our amends.
Who knows? Maybe we can be more than just friends.
CHORUS (2x).
How would we know?
