(Ft. Scar)

Scar

I wish you knew what I was thinkin,
I wish you knew everything.
I thought I couldn′t go on without you,
But sometimes love equals pain.

I thought I had all the answers babe,
But didn't know a thing.
So I had to find out the hard way,
That life teaches things.

Jully Black

I thought I had all the answers,
And thought I could make you change.
You didn′t have much to say to me,
But those eyes pushed me away.
It's real hard to forget that day,
You left me incomplete.
I wanted that other side of you,
But i just couldnt wait.

Both

And i wish you understood,
Said i wished you'd understand.
But it′s all that we could,
Cuz it′s all part of the plan.

And i wish you understood,
Said i wished you'd understand.
But it′s all that we could,
Cuz it's all part of the plan.

All part of the plan.

Jully Black

It took a little time for closure,
To put away all the pain.
But the first half of our relationship,
Is when we did relate.
And when i thought there way somebody else,
I moved out the way.
So there could be nobody left for you and i to blame.

Scar

I′m sorry for the pain i caused you,
Never meant to treat you that way.
Girl i was wrong but i relised way too late,
And i never got the changce to say it,
But thank you for helping me change.
Cuz if i knew then what i know now,
You never would have walked away.

Both

And i wish you understood,
Said i wished you'd understand.
But it′s all that we could,
Cuz it's all part of the plan.

And i wish you understood,
Said i wished you'd understand.
But it′s all that we could,
Cuz it′s all part of the plan.

All part of the plan.

Jully Black

Baby, it feels so good,
Cuz we finally got closure.
And i never thought that we would.

Baby, it feels so good,
Cuz we finally got closure.
And i never thought that we could.

Baby yeah

Both

And i wish you understood,
Said i wished you'd understand.
But it′s all that we could,
Cuz it's all part of the plan.

And i wish you understood,
Said i wished you′d understand.
But it's all that we could,
Cuz it′s all part of the plan.

Ect.
