Just a couple drinks at a college bar
that I don't even go to
Should've left and gone to sleep just like I told you
'Stead of lyin' 'bout that whole damn night
('Bout that whole damn night)
Now I'm tossin' in the sheets of the bed I made
No, there ain't no peace when you live in pain
No one deserves what I put you through
Oh, but tellin' you is what I gotta do

I never thought I'd be the guy to break your heart
Thought I'd walked the line, but I went too far
What if it changed everything?
And I know runnin' from her won't change anything
I don't have an alibi to make things right
I could apologize for the rest of my life
When I look into your eyes, I wonder
"Why would I ever lie to you? "
Just thought I knew what you'd do with the truth
I thought I'd lose you
If you ever knew

Don't go thinkin' that the blame's on you
It ain't nothing that you did or you didn't do
Hate this part of me that you gotta find out
But I'll lay it out, I'm done hidin' now

Never thought I'd be the guy to break your heart
Thought I'd walked the line, but I went too far
What if it changed everything?
And I know runnin' from her won't change anything
I don't have an alibi to make things right
I could apologize for the rest of my life
When I look into your eyes, I wonder
"Why would I ever lie to you? "
Just thought I knew what you'd do with the truth
I thought I'd lose you
If you ever knew

Know you might leave, it's hard to believe
But I don't blame you, girl, 'cause I don't even know me

I never thought I'd be the guy to break your heart
Thought I'd walked the line, but I went too far
What if it changed everything?
And I know runnin' from her won't change anything
I don't have an alibi to make things right
I could apologize for the rest of my life
When I look into your eyes, I wonder
"Why would I ever lie to you? "
Just thought I knew what you'd do with the truth
I thought I'd lose you
If you ever knew

I thought I'd lose you
If you ever knew
