Social Distortion - Take Care Of Yourself lyrics

Tried to love like the rest of the world A picture perfect romance I tried directing the play but the lines were all wrong I tried to make the occasions ring out I bought you diamonds and pearls But the gift that I didn't give was that of myself I'm sorry for what I said Sorry for the things I didn't do I'll say goodbye, but baby, take care of yourself There were times I couldn't hear your side Or put myself in your place My relationship sk**s had simply run out And when our times were good they were good And when they were bad they were bad I tried directing the play but the scenes were all wrong I'm sorry for what I said Sorry for the things I didn't do I'll say goodbye, but baby, take care of yourself I'll walk away, but baby, take care of yourself And there's nothing I wouldn't do for you To try and keep you here by my side If there's the slightest chance I could change for you Then I'll be here still for the long ride I'm sorry for what I said Sorry for the things I didn't do I'll say goodbye, but baby, take care of yourself [x2] I'll walk away, but baby, take care of yourself I'll say goodbye, but baby, take care of yourself
