To you in the past
 Or make you forget the reasons why
 We didn't last

 I'm haunted by what might have been
 Still I can't change who I was back then

 But if I could hold you now you'd see
 I've turned myself around and now
 I'm someone you'd be proud to love
 I'd do all the right things, make promises
 That I'd keep
 It'd hurt too much to let you down
 And in my arms there'd be no room for doubt
 If I could hold you now

 It's funny how this empty room
 Makes it all too clear
 When I let you leave
 A part of me just disappeared

 But if I'd known then what I've come to know
 There's no way I could have let you go

 But if I could hold you now you'd see
 I've turned myself around and now
 I'm someone you'd be proud to love
 I'd do all the right things, make promises
 That I'd keep
 It'd hurt too much to let you down
 And in my arms there'd be no room for doubt
 If I could hold you now

 But if I'd known then what I've come to know
 There's no way I could have let you go

 But if I could hold you now you'd see
 I've turned myself around and now
 I'm someone you'd be proud to love
 I'd do all the right things, make promises
 That I'd keep
 It'd hurt too much to let you down
 And in my arms there'd be no room for doubt
 If I could hold you now

 If I could hold you now
 If I could hold you now
