I was walking down a long road
Blinded by the street lights
Drinking with the wrong girls
Acting like a monster
Staying out all night

I was fighting all the wrong wars
Reading all the wrong signs
Driving past your front door
I know it's the long way
Hoping to see the light

Now all I want is you
But the one thing I can't have is you

Now you've left for someone new
I missed the boat and I lost you
And there is nothing I can do
There are no words to explain
I search a picture of your face
And though it causes so much pain

I look anyway
I look anyway
I just can't look away
And though it causes so much pain
I look anyway

Keep on pulling on my heart strings
You kill me on the inside
And even though it's my choice
I just want the encore
How can I look away?

Now all I want is you
But the one thing I can't have is you

Now you've left for someone new
I missed the boat and I lost you
And there is nothing I can do
There are no words to explain
I search a picture of your face
And though it causes so much pain

I look anyway
I look anyway
I just can't look away, yeah yeah
And though it causes so much pain
I look anyway

I want you so bad but I can't go back
I can't go back to the things we had
I want you so bad but I can't go back
I can't go back to the things we had

Now you've left for someone new
I missed the boat and I lost you
And there is nothing I can do
There are no words to explain
I search a picture of your face
And though it causes so much pain

I look anyway
I look anyway
I just can't look away
And though it causes so much pain
I look anyway

I want you so bad but I can't go back
I can't go back to the things we had
I want you so bad but I can't go back
I can't go back to the things we had
