[Verse 1] You said I never listen Maybe you were right You said you've been unhappy For a long, long time I wanted to say something But nothing sounded true So I just stood there wondering What happened to me and you [Chorus] Is that what you really think? Is that what you really believe? That I never cared about you That you were better off without me? If that's the way you see it I won't ask you to stay But look me in the eye, darling Before you walk away Is that what you really think? Or is there something left to say? [Verse 2] We had our share of hard times We had our share of tears But I never thought we'd lose it After all these years I know I made my mistakes I know I let you down But I loved you in the only way I knew how back then [Chorus] Is that what you really think? Is that what you really believe? That everything between us Wasn't what I thought it'd be? If that's the way you see it I won't ask you to stay But look me in the eye, darling Before you walk away Is that what you really think? Or is there something left to say? [Bridge] Maybe we were both too proud To say what we were feeling Maybe somewhere along the way We stopped believing I don't need a promise I don't need you to lie I just need the truth from you Before we say goodbye [Instrumental Break] Fingerpicked electric guitar, distant steel guitar, strings slowly swelling. [Verse 3] You know I still remember The way you used to laugh The nights we'd sit together And talk about our past I don't want to change it I wouldn't if I could Some things aren't meant to last forever Even when they're good [Final Chorus] Is that what you really think? Is that what you really believe? That I never cared about you That you were better off without me? If that's the way you see it I'll let you walk away But I'll carry one question For the rest of my days Is that what you really think? Or are you afraid to say That somewhere underneath it all You still love me anyway? [Outro] You didn't have to answer. I could see it in your eyes. Some goodbyes don't need a reason. Some just need a little time.
