Before You Left - Deana Carter

I tried to stop you but you’re already gone

If I could catch you and tell you I was wrong

Maybe my whole world wouldn’t fall apart

Maybe you’d open up your broken heart

What have I done?

How could I let something so beautiful

Slip through my hands

Now all I’ve got is all of this regret

I thought I wanted to leave

But that was before you left

I didn’t always love you the best that I knew how

That’s the thing about the quiet, I can hear you now

I didn’t know how much a heart could take

Till I watched you walk away

What have I done?

How could I let something so beautiful

Slip through my hands

Now all I’ve got is all of this regret

I thought I wanted to leave

But that was before you left

What have I done?

How could I let something so beautiful

Slip through my hands

Now all I’ve got is all of this regret

I thought I wanted to leave

But that was before you left
