I never really had your full attention
And if I ever did it was fleeting at best
And all I asked of you
Was to stand by me but
You weren't there
Another night I lay awake
Drinking just to fall asleep
While you sleep soundly
And I'd bend and break
Just to see you fake it
And after all this time
You turned your back on me
I never really had your full attention
And if I ever did it was fleeting at best
And all I asked of you
Was to stand by me but
You weren't there
If I were dying I doubt that you would even notice or care
Even notice or care
Even notice or care
(Care)
I never really had your full attention
And if I ever did it was fleeting at best
And all I asked of you
Was to stand by me but
You weren't there
And everything you said
It turned out meaningless
Promises are meant
To be kept
I never really had your full attention
And if I ever did it was fleeting at best
And all I asked of you
Was to stand by me but
You weren't there
I never really had your full attention
And if I ever did it was fleeting at best
And all I asked of you
Was to stand by me but
You weren't there (I never really had your full attention)
I never really had your full attention
And if I ever did it was fleeting at best
And all I asked of you
Was to stand by me but
You weren't there
