I couldn't find the reason
I couldn't find the time
I couldn't find the words to say
To get you out of my life 

I didn't know your story
I didn't know your pain
I didn't know your phone had died
And you were stranded in the rain 

I should've thought things over
I should've played it cool
I should've let you plea your case
‘Cause lovers often play the fool 

I would've heard your story
I would've heard your side
I would've heard the voice of truth
And simple logic would apply 

(Instead) I saw you through your window
I saw you at your door
I saw your body hit the ground
And heard it crashing to the floor 

If I could turn the clock back
If I could make amends
If I could get out of this cell
I'd never do those things again
