I didn't want to admit it right now
But I know it needs to be said
I should have kept you closer somehow
But I pushed you out instead

So many times I've had something that
I knew I didn't wanna live without
And so many times I've let it disappear
Not knowing why or how

And now she's gone and I'd understand
Why she wouldn't want to see me again
She's moving on and now she wants someone
Someone who can keep a friend

I didn't want to admit it right now
But I know it needs to be said
I should have kept you closer to somehow
But pushed you out instead

I've heard and heard again and again
'Bout how I'm young and how I'll be fine
But you were precious to me and
You'll never leave my mind

I've heard and heard again and again
'Bout how I'm young and how I'll be fine
But you were so precious to me and
You'll never leave my mind
