I've given up on right and wrong
'Cause life is short and I don’t have long
And I guess I thought you knew
Everything I feel for you

Maybe you never noticed before
All the time that I spent outside your door
While you were falling asleep
I prayed the Lord your soul to keep

Love will crush your soul if you let it
But I have only once regretted
The words I might have left unspoken
The promises I might have broken

I don't know if I've said it yet
But there is something that I just cannot forget
How you wounded my pride
No matter how hard I tried

Maybe you never noticed before
All the nights that I stood outside your door
If I set you free
There's no going back for me

Love will crush your soul if you let it
But I have only once regretted
The words I might have left unspoken
The promises I might have broken
