Jamie Moorehead - How Could I Lyrics

How could I have done it?
How could I have left the only one
Who had ever loved me?
How could I have walked away that day
When you were everything I needed?
I'm the one that pleaded God
To go back in time
To when you were mine
When I'd never leave you
Back when we were ok...
How could I?
Why did I not stay?
I had to go my own way
But how could I?
How could I?
I planned my whole life with you babe
But it was myself I had to save
Oh how could I

Leave you when I promised you I'd be the one that stood by you forever
And when all was said and done
I'd thrown away two and a half years of being together
How could I have left the most
Beautiful girl in the world
And one who knew everything about me?
Someone I would've loved for all of eternity

And I still do
Thats what makes it tough
But after what I did
What I hid from you
Yeah we left it rough
And though we weren't together then
I said we'd spend a little time to work on ourselves
And while you did
I went off the rails and made mistakes that I regret
You would've come back and I f*cked it
I blew our second chance
Now I'm waiting for the last
But maybe it has passed

How could I have done it?
How could I have left the only one
Who had ever loved me?
How could I have walked away that day
When you were everything I needed?
I'm the one that pleaded God
To go back in time
To when you were mine
When I'd never leave you
Back when we were ok
How could I?
Why did I not stay?
I had to go my own way
But how could I?
How could I?
I planned my whole life with you babe
But it was myself I had to save
Oh how could I

Without the one that was holding me together
Now I've messed it up so bad
I turned a maybe to a never
I promise I've changed now
And I'm trying to be better
I have tried to move on cause everyone's said
I should "forget her"

But how can I
How can I forget the only one
Who had ever loved me?
How can I walk away today
When you were everything I needed?
I'm the one that pleaded God
To go back in time
To when you were mine
When I'd never leave you
I wish we were still ok
How could I?
Why did I not stay?
I had to go my own way
But how could I?
How could I?
I planned my whole life with you babe
But it was myself I had to save
Oh how could I...?
Ooooo
