So Much Better
Carl Thomas Lyrics

Baby girl I was dead wrong for days I would stay gone
I deeply regret leaving you alone and being absent from your life for so many days.

Telling you one thing doing another thing
I was dishonest and insincere with you, saying one thing but doing something completely different.

But the lies, finally caught up up to me
My deceitful behavior was exposed, and I can no longer hide from the consequences.

Left you with no choice but to leave
My actions pushed you away, and now you have no option but to walk away from our relationship.

Too slick for my own good
My attempts to deceive and manipulate were cunning, but now I realize it has only caused me harm.

Never thought that I would
I never expected to be caught in my own web of lies and deceit.

Get caught out there
I got caught in my dishonesty, and now I am struggling with the consequences.

But I did and I blew it
I messed up, and this mistake has cost me dearly.

Lost sight of what was important to me
I lost sight of what really mattered, which was you and our relationship.

It was you, and now I can plainly see
You were the most important thing to me, and now that I have lost you, I realize how much I took you for granted.

Life was so much better (with you in it)
Having you in my life made everything better, and I miss you terribly.

I know I messed up (and were finished)
I am fully aware of the mistakes I made, and I understand that our relationship is now over.

I couldn't control myself, and now I'm alone and by myself
My lack of self-control caused me to lose you, and now I am left alone, with nobody to blame but myself.

Because (I couldn't get into you)
My inability to be honest and genuine with you prevented me from truly connecting with you.

And I will (there was something I could do) to get you back
I am willing to do anything to try and win you back, and I know that I have to take responsibility for my mistakes in order to have a chance.

All I had to do was act right, instead I was acting like
I realized that if I had just been honest and authentic with you, things could have been so different.

You was just another girl
I made the mistake of not recognizing how special you were, and instead treated you like just another person.

But the truth is I love you girl
Despite everything, I still love you deeply, and I cannot bear the thought of losing you forever.

I know the chances are slim to none
I am aware that it might be too late, and that the chances of us reconciling are very low.

And I probably don't deserve another one
I understand that my behavior was unacceptable, and it might be impossible for me to earn your forgiveness.

'Cause I want you to take me back
I am begging for another chance, because I cannot imagine my life without you.

The way I did you can't expect you
I know that I hurt you deeply, and I cannot expect you to take me back without doing everything in my power to make things right.

(Girl that me it's in my past)
I am willing to put my past behavior behind me, and start fresh with you.

All the times I use to neglect you
I now realize how much I neglected you and took you for granted, and I am filled with regret and remorse.

Come back and bite me in the ass
My mistakes have now come back to haunt me, and I am suffering the consequences of my actions.

'Cause I was chasing what I already had in you
I foolishly pursued other things, without realizing that I already had everything I needed in you.

And I wish there was something I could do (to get you back)
I am desperately wishing to turn back time, and do things differently in order to win you back.

Yeah yeah yea yeah yeah
This is my way of expressing the depth of my emotions and the sincerity of my regret.

Would you take me back would take me back
This is my final plea for a second chance, because I cannot bear the thought of living without you.
