Better Half of Me
[Verse 1]
I know that I was not there when you needed me
And I took it for granted
The way that you treated me, yes
After all of the dreams we shared
And through all of the pain we beared
I know I tore down, the love that we found
Will you ever forgive me? Yeah

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause I realize where it went wrong
All I want is for you to come home
It's such shame that our love is gone
I'm all alone by the phone
I'd do anything for the calls again (I'd do anything)
You're the only one that I called a friend
Promise me it's not the end
But I know you care, and I know you care

[Chorus]
Look what I've done to us
What was I thinking of?
I had to go and make it rough
I lost the better half of me
And now I'm begging, baby please
I'll even fall on my knees
Anything to make you see
That you're the better half of me
[Verse 2]
You gave me your love and your trust
You protected me, oh
And when everyone turned away, you stood by me
Now I know I was a fool for what I did to you
It hurt me inside when you said goodbye
Baby, please believe me, yeah

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause I realize where it went wrong (I realize)
All I want is for you to come home
It's such shame that our love is gone
I'm all alone by the phone
I'd do anything for the calls again (I'd do anything)
You're the only one that I called a friend (You, you, you)
Promise me it's not the end
But I know you care, and I know you care

[Chorus]
Look what I've done to us
What was I thinking of?
I had to go and make it rough
I lost the better half of me
And now I'm begging, baby please
I'll even fall on my knees
Anything to make you see
That you're the better half of me
[Bridge]
('Cause I realize where it went wrong)
Look what I've done to us
What was I thinking of?
(All I want is for you to come home)
I had to go and make it rough
(It's such shame that our love is gone)
I lost the better half of me
(I'm all alone by the phone)
And now I'm begging, baby please
(I'd do anything for the calls again)
I'll even fall on my knees
(You're the only one that I called a friend)
Anything to make you see
(Promise me it's not the end)
That you're the better half of me
(But I know you care)

[Outro]
Don't leave me all alone
Oh, please, oh
