If you somehow stopped by tonight
Would I still tell you goodbye?
Tomorrow's not gonna come
And yesterday should have mattered anyway
But today was just another day
And all I did was wish you had stayed

I never should have let you down
I never should have walked into that door
How was I supposed to know
Things were gonna change?

I wanted to be there
To show you I really cared
Somehow tell you these forgotten words
But then I unfolded
I fell down to my knees
And suddenly I knew you weren't there

I never should have said goodnight
I never should have let you walk out that door
How was I supposed to know
Things were gonna change?

Maybe because it was meant to be
And maybe this is how it's gonna be
Torn apart
And all broken up
Fighting for what's left
And trying to remember you

Dear God trying to hold on

I maybe should have come along
I maybe should have said something more
How was I supposed to know
Things were gonna change?

How was I supposed to know
I'd never see you again?

How was I supposed to know
It was going to end so soon?

How were we supposed to know
Living without you would feel like this?
