I couldn't believe what I was seeing  Faces all screwed up like what I'd done  I didn't mean to hurt you so much  I knew it would hurt you but not like this  We all make a mess from time to time, dear  But it'll take me a lifetime to get this cleared  Somebody muttered something under their breath  But I let on like I was a little deaf  Nobody's perfect, that's what I say  No one has hurt me so much you say  I'm sorry  Running away seemed like the easy thing to do because I wanted time  To put a smile back on your face  For once nothing's missing and I feel fine  I was afraid to tell you some things  But some things all find a way to get told  Hearing it from the lips of somebody else  Must have knocked the wind out of your sweet chest
