I could've done more
I could've done better
I could've been by your side during all your stormy weather
I could've been there
Could've helped when you were falling
But I didn't do enough, and now I'm calling out for you
I couldn't provide the help you needed
I wanted to be there to help you succeed
I wanted to stand by your side and help you up
I couldn't catch you when you fell
I should've held on (had to let you go, ah)
While you were still here beside me
I should've never let our time go to waste
I should've stayed strong (and walked away, ah)
Been the help you were pleading for
Been the rock you needed to bring you back to a better place
I wish that I hadn't been so blind
To all of the buzz inside your mind
I wish that I'd been a better friend
I wish you would tell me you were coming home again
There's nothing I could've done
There's only so many wars you could've won
There's nothing I could've said
To make you convince yourself you weren't better off dead
You deserved more
You deserved better
You deserved more in life than I could ever get you
You deserved the world
And all that's inside it
And I wish I could have made everything alright for you
I couldn't provide the help you needed
I could've done more
I could've done more
I could've done more
