What Went Wrong (Album Version)

What Went Wrong (Album Version) - The Slackers

Give me a minute to compose myself

It's been long

Long time since you've been gone

I can still remember

Conversations we had

Too bad that's all

That now lingers on

So many times

I nearly fooled myself

That somebody like

You could give a damn about me

But then one day you stepped

Into my life

All my strife was a fleeting memory

Over and over in my head at night

Didn't lose the battle

Didn't give up the fight

To let you go then

Didn't make things right

Can't hide the tears from my eyes

Now that love's gone

And passed me by

Bearing my life

I somehow steered you wrong

From the road once again

Was driving us away

I pushed aside the things

That meant so much

With the hope

That you'd be happy someday

I wear regret now

Like the lines on my face

Not a day passes on that

You don't cross my mind

Couldn't raise the spirits

Of the broken hearted

Chance presents itself

What'd you do in kind

Over and over in my head at night

Didn't lose the battle

Didn't give up the fight

To let you go then

Didn't make things right

Can't hide the tears from my eyes

Now that love's gone

And passed me by

Can't hide the tears from my eyes

Now that love's gone

And passed me

But then one day

I gathered up the nerve

To dream all of those ways

I thought not to cross

In for this pain that flow deep

Down inside

That still has the dreams

That always know loss

Upon the threshold

I now made my ascent

Towards the door

I sure closed on one careless day

Written on the ledge

Just passed I bother let in

That your name

Long gone it faded away

Over and over in my head at night

Didn't lose the battle

Didn't give up the fight

What went wrong

To let you go then

Didn't make things right

What went wrong

What went wrong

Can't hide the tears from my eyes

Now that love's gone and passed me

Now that love's gone

Love's gone

Now that love's gone and passed me by

Now that love's gone

Love's gone

Love's gone

Now that love's gone and passed me by

Now that love's gone

Love's gone

Love's gone

Now that love's gone and passed me by

Now that love's gone

Love's gone

Love's gone

Now that love's gone and passed me by
