I called you on the phone every day, I raised your spirits up when you were blue, So why am I here eating out my heart, Over things I didn't do?. And I wrote to you when I was overseas, I told you I would always pull you through, So why am I here beating up myself, For the things I didn't do?. I didn't really think of us as permanent, I didn't really keep you from the cold, I didn't really think that you were serious, I didn't plan to stay around and watch you growing old... I came to you when you cried for help, I always understood your point of view, To lie awake all night just to watch you sleep, I didn't think that I was yours or that you were mine... I stood beside yo in your darkest hour, I always tried to do my best for you, But I know my best could never take the place, Of the things I didn't do... Yes, I know my best could never take the place, Of the things I didn't do... The things I didn't do... The things I didn't do...
