Shane Thurston - Leaving Me Behind (Acoustic Demo)

Would it matter if I'd never
Saw you that night?
Would you still know my name?
Would all the pain still go away?
Or would it be the same?
Would we still hold each other
As the moon arced through the sky?
Would we still be tangled
In one another until the sun came to rise?

Oh, tonight you're leaving me behind
Oh, you pressed play
And moved forward in your life
If there anything I could do
Or anything I could say
I'd do it so you'd just stay mine
Oh, but tonight, this time
You're leaving me behind

Now, I had no business being
Involved with her
But my actions you couldn't condone
I was trying to forget about you
You just wanted your husband home
Until the day I showed up
Yeah, I came knocked upon your door
Telling you I had seen the light
And wanted to try once more

Oh, tonight you're leaving me behind
Oh, oh, you pressed play
And moved forward in your life
I gave everything I had
One thousand percent
I did it so you'd just stay mine
Oh, but tonight, this time
You're leaving me behind

Now, I've made my share of mistakes
But it seems I've been condemned
To live a life without your love
A good husband I haven't been
It's heartbreaking just to know
Yeah, that when you look at me
To you I'm just not the man
The man you need to see

Oh, tonight you're leaving me behind
Oh, oh, you pressed play
And moved forward in your life
At the end of the day
Is this something you'll regret?
We're living in borrowed time
Oh, but tonight, this time
You're leaving me behind

Now sometime has passed on
And you found your way
I'm still learning to live without you
I take it day by day
These days if you wanna see me
You can find where the south wind blows
Sometimes I swear
I feel your arms around me
And smell you on my clothes

Oh, that night you left me behind
I finally picked myself up off the ground
And moved on with my life
But now you want the chance
To sit back and explain
But I've been through all the heartache
The tears and the pain
Oh, but tonight, this time
When you look into your lover's eyes
You'll try so hard but all you'll see
No matter what you do
You'll always see me
And you'll think about our love
And how you want it back
And how we would have made it
If you'd only took the chance
Oh, you're too late, this time
You shouldn't have gone
And left me behind
