Could I have done something? Would you have stayed? I think day one was already too late I slept right through it and I never knew That I was losing you all along Our promises weighed in the same, ounce for ounce But none of it stayed in, so none of it counts While I was waiting while you were away I was losing you all along There were things I listened to, but sounded wrong And I couldn't notice what was so strong But at the time seemed almost nothing And you told me not to worry about it Then time went on and I was losing you all along Heard this thing's red The rest is blue Heard that you're sweet And so are you Just another thing to do Somebody strings someone along Someone looking at me wrong They're seeing me and you The way I must have wanted to But while I was losing you all along And I wonder if I knew if something had been done There could have been chances But now they're gone just like you They wouldn't stay still And I picture you counting the days 'til I'd be gone while I was losing you all along And I never know what I'm gonna turn into All I know is that I've been too often wrong I was losing you all along
