The Distance

By: Erika L. Faidley

I lied to you that day, I didn't mean what I said
I thought I did, I thought I was right
I see now that I was wrong
And I wish I could take it back.

I didn't realize how difficult it would be
To come home, and see you without me
With someone else, someone new
My ring on her finger, I can't believe it

When I told you it was over I didn't mean it
I wanted space and I wanted you
And now I see I've lost you
While I was having my fun, you found your own

Tell me please what I can do to win you back
I've had my fun, and I want you
Nothing compares to what we had
What I meant to say that day was I love you
