Now maybe I didn't mean to treat you bad But I did it anyway And then maybe Some would say your life was sad But you lived it anyway And so maybe Your friends they stand around they watch you crumble As you falter down to the ground And then someday Your friends they stand beside as you were flying Oh you were flying oh so high But then someday people look at you for what they call their own They watch you suffer Yeah they hear you calling home And then some day we could take our time To brush the leaves aside so you can reach us But you left me far behind
Now maybe I didn't mean to treat you oh so bad But I did it anyway Now maybe some would say you're left with what you had But you couldn't share the pain
No, no, no Couldn't share the pain, they watch you suffer Now maybe I could have made my own mistakes But I live with what I've known And then maybe we might share in something rare But won't you look at where we've grown Won't you look at where we've gone But then someday comes Tomorrow holds a sense of what I feel for you in my mind As you trip the final line And that cold day when you lost control Shame you left my life so soon you should have told me But you left me far behind
Now maybe I didn't mean to treat you oh so bad But I did it anyway Now maybe some would say you're left with what you had But you couldn't share the pain No, no, no
Now maybe I didn't mean to treat you oh so bad But I did it anyway Now maybe baby some would say you're left with what you had But you couldn't share the pain I said times have changed your friends They come and watch you crumble to the ground They watch you suffer Yeah, they hold you down Hold you down Now maybe oh oh, maybe I didn't mean to treat you bad But you left me far behind Left me far behind Left me far behind
