I'm sorry, love
For the things I couldn’t see
For how my mind betrayed me
Left you standing in the dark
Afraid to show what's in my heart
And I need you to know
That I'm so glad I found your light
I wish that I could have more time
A machine to take me back
To the day I lost, you left
And I’d say

But, from my heart, I don't know the best way to start it
Even after all those lines that I've been trying to make
And I didn't tell you back then, and it hurts so hard
When I remember these words: I hope you'll be okay

I put our future in a frame without a second thought
Not knowing if that was what you wanted, too
And I once believed I had lessons to be taught
But in the end, I realized all that I've learned from you

There's a note that says the real meaning of love
We were apart, and in the end, I finally got the truth
I had the chance and threw it away, oh man, I broke her heart
And that was exactly what I never wanted to do

There are things that I could have explained
And I'm not trying to defend myself
But now all I want to say
Is, I

I'm sorry, love
For the things I couldn’t see
For how my mind betrayed me
Left you standing in the dark
Afraid to show what's in my heart
And I need you to know
That I'm so glad I found your light
I wish that I could have more time
A machine to take me back
To the day I lost, you left
And I’d say

What a shame, it took me so long to finally see
I was lost inside the chaos that I built alone
Your comment changed the way the world looked back at me
And because of you, trust me, the old me is gone

And I know it's way too late to turn things back
But I know that in my mind you'll stay alive
You're my X, and you'll remain when nothing's left
We're the poetry that I've always dreamed to write

There are things that I could have explained
And I'm not trying to defend myself
But now all I want to say
Is, I

I'm sorry, love
For the things I couldn’t see
For how my mind betrayed me
Left you standing in the dark
Afraid to show what's in my heart
And I need you to know
That I'm so glad I found your light
I wish that I could have more time
A machine to take me back
To the day I lost, you left
And I’d say

Here's the reason why I fell in love with you
Just because you're exactly as you truly are
Every day till my death, this promise I'll hold true
My last message will remain, no matter how far
