"Some Time Ago" lyrics

You knew me when I was runnin'
Always lookin' for somethin' new
Seemed the more I tried to find it
The more that I'd lose
'Cause that's what fools do

I never knew all I wanted
Was standin' right in front of me
Took some years of livin' lonely
To get me to see
You were the life of me

But that was some time ago
And I didn't know the power of a true love
In a woman like you
How could I let you go
And leave you in a moment
When you needed me and I needed you?
Let's leave the past alone
'Cause that was some time ago, oh

I'm ready to forgive me
And I'm hopin' you are too
Been a rocky road we traveled
And hard on our hearts
But we got a brand new start

But that was some time ago
When I didn't know the power of a true love
In a woman like you
How did I let you go
And leave you in a moment
When you needed me and I needed you?
Let's leave the past alone
'Cause that was some time ago

Well, I thought it didn't count
But the pain was in the lesson
Of findin' out
'Cause when you got that one somebody
And you lose that one somebody
True love's gonna turn you around

'Cause that was some time ago
When I didn't know the power of a true love
In a woman like you
Oh, how could I let you go
And leave you in a moment
When you needed me and I needed you?
Let's leave the past alone
Oh, turn the lights down low
That was some time ago
That was some time ago

Woo
Let's leave the past alone, leave the past alone
Leave the past alone, baby, come on home
