I cried every night
Knowing he wasn't mine
They told me to hang on
They said just give it time

I didn't know what to do
To make my baby come back home
I never really understood
Why he had gone

We were together for awhile
For almost a year
And it really broke my heart
When I thought he didn't care

I really did love him
And it hurt me to let him go
He was my entire life
He completely filled my soul

I went through so much
Just to be with him
I let my family down
Over and over again

I wanted him to realize
That he had made a mistake
I wanted him to miss me
I wanted his heart to break

He went on with his life
F*cking any trick he could
He said he didnt love me
And that he was done for good

So, I stopped the phone calls
He didnt see me anymore
I completely let go
I didnt go knocking on his door

Yeah, it broke my heart
And at night, I sometimes cried
But I couldnt beg him back
This time I'd keep my pride

Two weeks slowly passed
Since he'd heard my voice
I didnt make him walk away
He knew he had a choice

I came home one day
And checked my caller i.d.
And there was his number
Right in front of me

Why had he called me
What did I do now
The only time he ever called
Was when he wanted to yell

I didnt call him back
Even though I wanted to
That boy doesnt even realize
What he puts me through

He heard I met someone else
Who held me while I slept
And I know that it hurt him
Because my baby wept

He didnt tell anyone
And I wasnt supposed to see
He thought that I was gone
Because I said that I would leave

I stood there in tears
Watching my baby's eyes
I've never seen him so hurt
It was the first time I saw him cry

I stood there wondering
As I watched him on the couch
What went through his mind
The moment he found out

I called him the next day
Pretending I was fine
Just to see how he was doing
Just to kill some time

I didnt know what to say
Or how he would react
I didnt know if he'd talk
Or if he'd even open up his mouth

But to my suprise
The first thing that he said
Was baby I miss you
And Im sorry for what I did

I guess my friends were right
They told me just give it time
Make him realize what he lost
While pretending I was fine
