I Had It All Wrong

I couldn’t wait to say good-by
I couldn’t wait to see you cry
To see you down and on your knees
To hear you beg me “oh baby please”
To spread my wings and fly from the cage
But I had it all wrong and now it’s too late
I thought this ole heart could never break
But I had it all wrong now it’s too late

I couldn’t wait to play the field
The grass was greener on the other hill
I had a need you couldn’t fill
But now you’re gone baby and I’m lonely still
To taste freedom and break the chains
But I had it all wrong now it’s too late
I thought this ole heart would never break
But I had it all wrong and now it’s too late

Bridge: It’s too late
            Oh too late
            We can’t take the old road home
            It’s too late
            We’ve lost our way
            And there’s no goin’ back
            Since you’ve gone

I couldn’t wait to be on my own
I loved you baby but the thrill had gone
Too many tears and lonely nights
Too many promises to make it right
I thought your leavin’ would rid me this pain
But I had it all wrong and now it’s too late
