Intro
Verse
You've grown so much,
You've come so far.
I never thought we'd end up here.
You know I've seen this picture before,
Reminds me of when you were home.
Sometimes you're all I see,
Sometimes you're all I feel.
Chorus1
Wanted to tell you Goodbye
And know that you're safe.
Now that the pain is gone,
The love remains.
Though all my thoughts turned out to be so true.
I couldn't see
All that was best in you... C G F F
All that was best in you... C G F F
Verse2
Worked so hard, that broke your heart.
Robbed you of your smile that would save the world.
A friend now more for a friend I lost..
A friend that never left me unsure.
I'm sure.
Chorus2
Wanted to tell you I lied.
Oh, I made mistakes.
And when I failed in life,
It was you I blamed.
Though all my faces you could see right through..
I couldn't see
All that was best in you...
Bridge
You are my hope, I'm giving in..
You are the ink under my skin..
You are the day that I awake..
You'll be the only chance I'll take.
All I am and lost before..
The things I love and I adore..
My handful of hope and a little more...
Chorus3
Wanted to tell you I tried
To make it okay.
With just one letter gone I lost the name
Of that little boy smiling back at you..
He could see
All that was best in you...
