I know it's been some time, haven't talked for a minute (oh)
Took me leaving life just to know how to live it
You made me cry so many times, but it's all right
'Cause I'm doin' alright, uh, ha-ha
There's a million ways to be there for somebody
You had a million words, all I needed was sorry (sorry, sorry)
Now the guilt you hide ea's you inside, but don't you cry (don't you cry)
'Cause I'm alright, alright, alright, alright

Hold me just like it was yesterday (ooh)
I know it took me some time, ha
Went to hell and back and now we're good
I know you did the best you could
So hold me like I'm still your baby
No, we don't need to fight, ha
Went to hell and back and now we're good
I know you did the best that you could

Could've been so close, never got that far (ooh)
Seeing you feel bad really breaks my heart
Now I'm growin' up wise, I realise that when you cry (mm)
It's 'cause I'm doin' alright, alright, alright, alright

Hold me just like it was yesterday (ooh, mhm)
I know it took me some time, ha
Went to hell and back and now we're good
I know you did the best you could
So hold me like I'm still your baby (hold me, ooh)
No, we don't need to fight, ha
Went to hell and back and now we're good
I know you did the best that you could

(I know you did the) best that you could
(I know you) oh
Best that you could, ooh

Mm, I forgive, I forgive all the ways you let me down
And weren't around when I called out
You loved me in a way that only you really knew how
But as long as you're here now

Hold me just like it was yesterday (oh, ah)
I know it took me some time, oh
Went to hell and back and now we're good
I know you did the best you could
So hold me like I'm still your baby (oh, baby)
No, we don't need to fight (no, oh)
Went to hell and back and now we're good
I know you did the best that you could
