Well, she was fighting for something steady

And I was fighting her all fours, and ready for

Anything that felt too heavy

Got damn good at leading her on.

But now she's gone

I let her go without a second thought

Now I'm the only one that can't move on

Still wanting it, still I'm wondering.

If I would have chased her

Would have just tried

Wouldn't have felt the sting of a goodbye

If I would have set aside a little more time

And a lot more pride, would she still be mine?

I should have known better

Should have made the last call over the phone better

Should have been a little bit more of a go-getter

Would have saved myself from a whole lot of hurt

If I would have chased her.

I wouldn't be kicking myself

'cause we'd be busy kicking dust on a dirt road wherever the wind blows

Instead I'm in hell

Watching her run and run and run and run.

'cause now she's gone

I let her go without a second thought

Now I'm the only one that can't move on

Still wanting it, still wondering.

If I would have chased her, would have just tried

Wouldn't have felt the sting of a goodbye

If I would have set aside a little more time

And a lot more pride, would she still be mine?

I should have known better

Should have made the last call over the phone better

Should have been a little bit more of a go-getter

Would have saved myself from a whole lot of hurt

If I would have chased her.

If I would have chased her

Yeah, yeah...

I shoulda known better

Now I'm all alone sipping something to forget her

Knowing that it's probably gonna take me forever

'til then I'll still be wanting it, still wondering.

If I would have chased her, would have just tried

Wouldn't have felt the sting of a goodbye

If I would have set aside a little more time

And a lot more pride, would she still be mine?

I should have known better

Should have made the last call over the phone better

Should have been a little bit more of a go-getter

Would have saved myself from a whole lot of hurt

If I would have chased her.

Oh, no...

If I would have chased her

Yeah, yeah...

If I would have chased her.
