I was sitting on the door step
i hung up the phone and it fell out of my hands,
i knew i had to do this
and you wouldnt understand.
id just called my brother
he was leaving that day,
to drive interstate for me
to take me away.
i didnt wanna leave you
but i had to leave that place,
and now i cant think of anything
except that look on your face.
when i told you i was leaving
you looked broken inside,
thats how i felt everyday
i stayed home all day to hide.
whenever i stepped out that door
i was getting judged by everyone,
you couldnt see it
but i was done.
it was your ex's family judging me
for being with you,
i was raising your ex's kids
there was nothing i could do.
they wouldnt give me a chance
they didnt understand,
how i felt about you
you were my man!!
i loved you with all my heart
i would have given you the world,
after i came back home
i got told you had a new girl.
does she love you the way i did
does she understand you,
does she look you in the eyes everyday
and promise to always be true.
does she treat your kids
like they were her own,
does she sit there everyday
waiting for you to come home.
does she realise she took everything i was
and everything i had,
when she took you
and made you her man.
i may have left you
but there is not one day that goes past,
i think of what we had
and wish it could always last.
you were my everything
my bad and my good,
i just wish you came back with me
i wish you understood.
we havent spoken in nearly 2 years
and that breaks my heart,
but i cant get over you
i cant make a new start.
what do you do when you had everything
but you threw it all away,
because of people who didnt know you
you decided not to stay.
i guess from all of this i want you to know
i still think of you everyday,
i still love you more than ever
and wish i had of stayed.
