Lyrics
I know I came home late
I acknowledge that I arrived home late.
And I didn't call
I didn't make a call.
Didn't want to complicate
I wanted to avoid adding complications.
Didn't want to hit the wall
I didn't want our relationship to face difficulties.
The words I said only went so far when you were all alone
The words I expressed had limited impact when you were by yourself.
We lost our way now we've both been tossed into the great unknown
We both lost our direction and ended up in unfamiliar territory.
Moving on
I am moving forward.
Said you're moving on
You mentioned that you are also moving on.
Said you couldn't take the reminders
You couldn't handle the constant reminders.
Sad songs always coming on
Sad songs, a constant reminder, kept playing.
Couldn't ever put it behind you
You couldn't put the past behind you.
Knew I'd always be walking that endless line
I always knew I would be navigating a challenging path.
Knew that I'd be right there
I knew I would be there for you.
No I'm going nowhere
I'm not going anywhere.
No I didn't ever mind you
I never minded your presence.
Taking up all my time
You consumed a significant part of my time.
You were still good to me too
You were still good to me despite everything.
You were too good to be true
You seemed too good to be true.
I know I can't stop fate
I understand that I cannot change fate.
And I don't recall
I don't remember the details.
Whatever I said too late
Whatever I said too late didn't matter in the end.
Didn't matter after all
Actions and words didn't have a lasting impact.
Mistakes were made but the debts were paid and that's all I know
Mistakes were made, but debts were settled, and that's all I know.
But the shifting tide always took its time bringing me back home
The changing circumstances always took their time bringing me back home.
Woah woah woah woah baby say it ain't so
An expression of disbelief or disappointment, asking if a negative situation is true.
Baby say it ain't so, I wanna know
A desire to confirm the truth of a situation.
Ooh ooh ooh ooh Can I count on you?
An inquiry about dependability and commitment.
Can I count on you? Are we pushing on through?
Questioning whether the relationship will endure challenges.
Can I count on you? Are we pushing on through?
Repeating the question about reliability and perseverance.
Baby we both knew, baby we both knew
Acknowledging that both partners were aware of the situation.
