The past is history
You can't go back and make it alright
You never get to choose if you win or lose

That's not how it goes, oh no

I know I had it all

How much more could anyone have?
And now I'm tryin to find what used to be mine
Before I went away


[Chorus]
Everything I wanted

Was everything I left behind
I never knew what I'd lose
And everything I needed

Was standing right in front of me
Now I know that it's true
Everything I wanted was you


How can I explain
Looking back I know I was wrong

I just couldn't see the forest for the trees
What more can I say


[Chorus]

Don't say all our bridges are burned

After all the lessons I've learned
Is there a chance that you could be mine
Or am I wasting my time


Everything I wanted
Everything I dreamed about

Was everything I aready had

[Chorus]

Everything I wanted
Was everything I left behind
I never knew what I'd lose

And everything I wanted
Was standing right in front of me
Now I know that it's true


Everything I needed
And everything I wanted

Now I know that it's true
Everything I wanted
Was you
