Not Me
If I could only turn back time
To the days when you were mine
I'd wrap you up with these two arms
And never let you go
I'd say the things I didn't say
The words that might have made you stay
I'd build my world around you, not me
I was always somewhere else
Thinkin' only of myself
Livin' just to chase a dream
A dream that was a doubt
I should've seen the warnin' signs
I never paid 'em any mind
Everybody saw it comin', not me
I kept reachin' for the stars and shootin' for the moon
When all along I had them in my hand
Little did I know how fast my world could slip away
It took losin' you for me to understand
That all you ever wanted was
Just to be a step above
All the things that stood between
The love we should have had
I can't say that I blame you now
For holdin' on to what you've found
I guess I'm why you're with him now
I guess I'm why you're with him, not me
To the days when you were mine
I'd wrap you up with these two arms
And never let you go
I'd say the things I didn't say
The words that might have made you stay
I'd build my world around you, not me
I was always somewhere else
Thinkin' only of myself
Livin' just to chase a dream
A dream that was a doubt
I should've seen the warnin' signs
I never paid 'em any mind
Everybody saw it comin', not me
I kept reachin' for the stars and shootin' for the moon
When all along I had them in my hand
Little did I know how fast my world could slip away
It took losin' you for me to understand
That all you ever wanted was
Just to be a step above
All the things that stood between
The love we should have had
I can't say that I blame you now
For holdin' on to what you've found
I guess I'm why you're with him now
I guess I'm why you're with him, not me
