Selfishly, part of me wishes there was a part of me That could be what you see potentially, everything you want
Married by a preacher that we both know Least I get to lie awake alone Knowing that you´re better off with me long gone
´Cause I loved you enough to know I ain´t what you´d need in the end And I left your heart breaking when I hit the pavement and I´d do it again ´Cause you might hate me now, but someday, yeah, somehow you´re gonna see That I loved you enough to leave
Coulda stayed, I coulda made every day a masquerade Playing house, talking ´bout everything but everything
Outside of those county lines Being happy, being so confined Know you´re gonna say I didn´t try
But I loved you enough to know I ain´t what you´d need in the end And I left your heart breaking when I hit the pavement and I´d do it again ´Cause you might hate me now, but someday, yeah, somehow you´re gonna see That I loved you enough to leave
And I didn´t call you ´cause damn it, I knew If I heard your voice I would turn right around
And I loved you enough to know I ain´t what you´d need in the end
I left your heart breaking when I hit the pavement and I´d do it again ´Cause you might hate me now, but someday, yeah, somehow When you find that someone that ain´t me, you´ll see That I loved you enough to leave Yeah, I loved you enough to leave
