    Backstory:
    Powerful ballad about a man reflecting on the one simple thing he could have done to keep the woman he loves.                                                                       

    Lyrics:
                                                      
    Sittin’ in the dark all alone Readin’ over what she says is wrong My heart explodes with every breath as I memorize the note she left behind I know every word from before Cause everything I’ve heard and just ignored She said I need someone who’s not afraid to lean on me sometimes If I had listened to what she tried to say Opened up my heart before it was to late I would have realized what she was missin’ If only I had listened She said I prayed for change and you to hear How every day’s the same, the weeks, the years I miss that old desire that burns inside like fire when love is new I think you’ll realize after I’m gone This emptiness inside just can’t go on I hope you find someday someone who makes you feel the way we used to If I had listened to what she tried to say Opened up my heart before it was to late I would have realized what she was missin’ If I had listened with more than just my ears I’d be holdin’ her instead of sittin’ here I should have realized what I’d be missin’ If only I had listened
