Could I have done something?
Would you have stayed?
I think day one was already too late
I slept right through it and I never knew
That I was losing you all along

Our promises weighed in the same, ounce for ounce
But none of it stayed in, so none of it counts
While I was waiting while you were away
I was losing you all along
There were things I listened to, but sounded wrong
And I couldn't notice what was so strong
But at the time seemed almost nothing
And you told me not to worry about it
Then time went on and I was losing you all along

Heard this thing's red
The rest is blue
Heard that you're sweet
And so are you
Just another thing to do

Somebody strings someone along
Someone looking at me wrong
They're seeing me and you 
The way I must have wanted to
But while I was losing you all along
And I wonder if I knew if something had been done
There could have been chances
But now they're gone just like you
They wouldn't stay still
And I picture you counting the days 'til
I'd be gone while I was losing you all along

And I never know what I'm gonna turn into
All I know is that I've been too often wrong
I was losing you all along
