I kinda lied and said I'd be alright all alone
 My friends said hey man what can you do
 Let her see what's missing and she'll come back to you
 They all said it was for the best
 But I knew as I watched you leave

 I should've listened to me, and gotten down on my knees
 I heard the words in my heart, don't tear us apart
 Come back baby please
 I should've swallowed my pride, I should've broke down and cried
 I was the one who knew that you and I were meant to be
 I should've listened to me

 Call it intuition, an instinctual feeling
 When you know you bet it all and your gonna lose everything
 That's what I had when you walked out the door
 And as each day passes I'm feeling it more and more
 Now that I'm hear it's all so clear
 How could I have made you see

 I should've listened to me, and gotten down on my knees
 I heard the words in my heart, don't tear us apart
 Come back baby please
 I should've swallowed my pride, I should've broke down and cried
 I was the one who knew that you and I were meant to be
 I should've listened

 I should've listened to me, and gotten down on my knees
 I heard the words in my heart, don't tear us apart
 Come back baby please
 I should've swallowed my pride, I should've broke down and cried
 I was the one who knew that you and I were meant to be
 I should've listened to me
 I should've listened to me
