The Slackers - What Went Wrong? lyrics

Give me a minute to compose myself It's been long, long time since you've been gone I can still remember conversations we had Too bad that's all that now lingers on So many times I nearly fooled myself That somebody like you could give a damn about me But then one day you stepped into my life All my strife was a fleeting memory Over and over in my head at night (What went wrong…) Didn't lose the battle, didn't give up the fight (What went wrong…) To let you go then didn't make things right (What went wrong…) Can't hide the tears from my eyes Now that love's gone and pa**ed me by Bearing my life I somehow steered you wrong From the road once again was driving us away I pushed aside the things that meant so much With the hope that you'd be happy someday I wear regret now like the lines on my face Not a day pa**es on that you don't cross my mind (You don't cross my mind…) Couldn't raise the spirits of the broken hearted Chance presents itself what'd you do in kind Over and over in my head at night (What went wrong…) Didn't lose the battle, didn't give up the fight (What went wrong…) To let you go then didn't make things right (What went wrong…) Can't hide the tears from my eyes Now that love's gone and pa**ed me by Can't hide the tears from my eyes Now that love's gone and pa**ed me… But then one day I gathered up the nerve To dream all of those ways I thought not to cross In for this pain that flow deep down inside That still has the dreams that always know loss Upon the threshold I now made my ascent Towards the door I sure closed on one careless day (On one careless day…) Written on the ledge, just pa**ed, I bother let in That your name, long gone, it faded away Over and over in my head at night (What went wrong…) Didn't lose the battle, didn't give up the fight (What went wrong…) To let you go then didn't make things right (What went wrong…) What went wrong… Can't hide the tears from my eyes now that love's gone and pa**ed me… Love's gone Love's gone Love's gone Now that love's gone and pa**ed me by (ect.)
