Cannot deny a time when I was not nice; you see in me lives another vice. Years upon years I played the dice; I promise you this – you I never intended to slice.
Did I drive you away?
Did I cause you dismay?
Nights upon nights you waited on an empty bed; flights upon flights my drug was the one that led. Left alone you hoped for a return; suppose hard it was the day you had to learn. Was it easy for you to go? Did you look back though? Wonder if for you the healing came slow; silently, for me the anguish will still grow.
Given the chance I would not let you down – again. Turnin’ back time I would not allow you to feel – such pain. Speaking with truth in hand – I can remember the first day we met. Leaping into a strange land – wheels in motion were set. Ninety-five was the year of our kiss; heavens birthed new stars amidst my induced bliss. Why was I such a fool? Without you I drowned in a shit-filled pool!
Why did I drive you away!
Why did I cause such dismay!
Now you lay with another at your side; I would lie if I didn’t say this hurts my pride. Only God knows how much I wanted you as my bride; loving each other we could have lived without divide. Such ease I felt in you to confide; a fortress of security where I could safely abide. So sorry our love met its doom – died; fantasy would be to see it bloom – denied.
Forgive me... didn’t mean to drive you away.
Forgive me... never meant to cause you dismay.
