To be real is to understand When I had you I was not completely in tune 'Cause I was blind, I let you drift away I didn't give you enough to stay So you made up my mind And you walked away And why didn't I Hold you tighter than tighter? When I could do no wrong It's getting harder and harder Why didn't I Hold you tighter than tighter? How could I be so wrong? You can't hold on To what is already gone Come back, baby Don't be strong, don't let it go 'Cause are you out there with someone else? Are you telling him, no? 'Cause I could be your shelter from the rain Come inside now, not gonna give you pain 'Cause I made up my mind, I walk away And why didn't I Hold you tighter than tighter? When I could do no wrong It's getting harder and harder Why didn't I Hold you tighter than tighter? How could I be so wrong? You can't hold on To what is already gone Come back, baby And why? Oh, why won't you believe in me? Why? Oh, why won't you believe in me? Why didn't I Hold you tighter than tighter? When I could do no wrong It's getting harder and harder Why didn't I Hold you tighter than tighter? How could I be so wrong? You can't hold on To what is already gone Ooh, ooh, ooh
