Years

I stayed while I lost sight of who I was
I gave you a love you could never see
And traded all my time for the us
I gave up my world

I spent years by your side, and none with me
Gave you the best of me, left my heart behind
I spent years by your side, burying my dreams
Baby, I regret loving you because
I spent years by your side, and none with me

I tried to be everything you needed
Left my dreams waiting
But what I really need is myself
I'll be the pedestal in my own life

I spent years by your side, and none with me
Gave you the best of me, left my heart behind
I spent years by your side, burying my dreams
Baby, I regret loving you because
I spent years by your side, and none with me

Only after it ended did I see
Everything I left behind just to keep you close

I spent years by your side, and none with me
Gave you the best of me, left my heart behind
I spent years by your side, burying my dreams
Baby, I regret loving you because
I spent years by your side, and none with me
