When I'm Gone
Maybe I should've listened when you told me that you had enough
I always seem to push a little bit harder than I really should
And now we're standing in the street light and I'm feeling like I just might give up
We were never really meant to be together but I can't say no
Midnights and always fighting and deciding when to let it go
Finding comfort in a stranger just to get a little anger from you
When I'm gone
You'll only think about what I did wrong
You won't remember how I turned you on
But if I could've loved you more somehow I might still be with you now
Maybe no one ever really taught me how to love myself
Maybe I should fix it 'cause I can't blame anybody else
I should've loved you with compassion and know you shouldn't have to ask it of me
'cause when I'm gone you'll only think about what I did wrong
You won't remember how I turned you on
But if I could've loved you more somehow
I might still be with you now
Show me how to love (show me how to love)
I'm begging on my knees (begging on my knees)
I gotta give it up, give you what I need
Show me how to love (show me how to love)
I'm begging on my knees (begging on my knees)
'cause this just ain't enough, gotta give it up
(...?)
'cause when I'm gone
You'll only think about what I did wrong
You won't remember how I turned you on
But if I could've loved you more somehow
'cause when I'm gone
You'll only think about me when I'm gone
And if you could've loved me more somehow
I might still be with you now
Oohh, I might still be with you now
I always seem to push a little bit harder than I really should
And now we're standing in the street light and I'm feeling like I just might give up
We were never really meant to be together but I can't say no
Midnights and always fighting and deciding when to let it go
Finding comfort in a stranger just to get a little anger from you
When I'm gone
You'll only think about what I did wrong
You won't remember how I turned you on
But if I could've loved you more somehow I might still be with you now
Maybe no one ever really taught me how to love myself
Maybe I should fix it 'cause I can't blame anybody else
I should've loved you with compassion and know you shouldn't have to ask it of me
'cause when I'm gone you'll only think about what I did wrong
You won't remember how I turned you on
But if I could've loved you more somehow
I might still be with you now
Show me how to love (show me how to love)
I'm begging on my knees (begging on my knees)
I gotta give it up, give you what I need
Show me how to love (show me how to love)
I'm begging on my knees (begging on my knees)
'cause this just ain't enough, gotta give it up
(...?)
'cause when I'm gone
You'll only think about what I did wrong
You won't remember how I turned you on
But if I could've loved you more somehow
'cause when I'm gone
You'll only think about me when I'm gone
And if you could've loved me more somehow
I might still be with you now
Oohh, I might still be with you now
