"As You Walked Away" lyrics

"As You Walked Away"

Broken promises hit different when you're laying on the bathroom floor
Guess I should have realized what you wanted when you asked for more

'Cause now you're with him, and I can't take it
My heart's been beating out of rhythm when I see your faces
You look so happy, what is it wrong with me?
That I refuse to give in to what you really wanted

If hindsight's 20/20, I was clearly blind

I should've told you that I need you
I should've mentioned how I felt before you fell for someone else
I should've told you how bad I miss you
'Cause now my greatest mistake is staying silent
As you walked away

I never would have shut you out if it meant you would shut the door
Everything that could've been, if we just talked some more
I know it's too late because you moved on
But I'm afraid that if I don't, I'll always hold on
I know it's selfish and that you'd be mad
But I can't live without you knowing that I mean that

If hindsight's 20/20, I was clearly blind

I should've told you that I need you
I should've mentioned how I felt before you fell for someone else
I should've told you how bad I miss you
'Cause now my greatest mistake is staying silent
As you walked away

And I know, I know that I should've called
And I know, I know that it's all my fault
And I know, I know that I can only blame myself
And if I know, I know, would you take me back?
If I know, I know how to work through my past
If I know, I know that you know, I know
Where do we go from here?

'Cause if hindsight's 20/20, I was clearly blind

I should've told you (I should tell you how I feel right now)
That I need you (I should've never let it all break down)
I should've mentioned how I felt before you fell for someone else
I should've told you (I should tell you how I feel right now)
How bad I need you (I should've told you)
Now my greatest mistake (I should've, what I had) is staying silent
As you walked away
