The Life I led

[instrumental] I am a writer, I live in my head a flawed character at best If only what I've written on the page Was the life I led When we started it wasn't perfect, but We had so much potential So much love Waking up beside you, I wanted nothing more in life Perhaps that is why I didn't ask you What you needed from me [female vocal - this verse] I tried to tell you We had drifted apart I needed more than a partner in bed You had your stories I needed more [male lead] In those quiet moments When you are alone Do you think of me And all the good times we had Or do you focus on the bad Do you even think of me, and when you do, Are you glad for what we had or are you sad Do you ever wonder could we start again I know I do; I write about what was Imagining what could have been But isn't that the problem I am a writer, I live in my head a flawed character at best If only what I've written on the page Was the life I led If only what I've written on the page Was the life I led
