It doesn’t seem like long ago
We traded hearts and I was sold
To the girl I thought I loved
But two years later I gave up
But that’s just a story that we tell
The way it happened felt like hell
And back to this day I’m still confused

I swear it was last night
You were in my dreams
I swear it was yesterday
That you were the one keeping me
From doing all the things
I know I shouldn’t be
But that was the best thing that ever happened to me
Cause I learned a lot about myself
And I learned to shut my mouth
If I’ve got nothing good to say at all

I hope you understand that this comes from my heart
I hope you’re happy now
I hope that you’ll go far
You’re a sweet, sweet girl
And I put you through a lot
Looking back I know what you meant
When you said you care
When you said you care

And lately I know I’ve been scared to say
The words I love you
So I avoid it when I can
And work on trying to fix this
Gaping hole you left inside me
It’s not easy to repair
But either way I wish you well
Just know that I am always there for you

I hope you understand that this comes from my heart
I hope you’re happy now
I hope that you’ll go far
You’re a sweet, sweet girl
And I put you through a lot
Looking back I know what you meant
When you said you care
When you said you care

I hope you understand that this comes from my heart
I hope you’re happy now
I hope that you’ll go far
