Now maybe
I didn't mean to treat you bad
But I did it anyway
And not maybe
Some would say your life was sad
But you lived it anyway

And now maybe
Your friends they stand beside
They watch you crumble
As you falter to the ground

And now maybe
Your friends they stand beside
As you were flying
Oh you were flying oh so high
But then some day people look at you
For what they call their own

They watch you suffer
Yeah they hear you calling home
But then some day we could take our time
To brush the leaves aside
So you can reach us

But you left me far behind

Now maybe
I didn't mean to treat you oh so bad
But I did it anyway
Now maybe
Some would say you're left with what you had
But you couldn't share the pain

No, no, no
Couldn't share the pain
They watch you suffer
Now maybe I could have made my own mistakes
But I live with what I've known
Yes maybe we might share in something great
But won't you look at where we've grown
Won't you look at where we've gone

But then someday comes tomorrow holds
A sense of what I fear for you in my mind
As you trip the final line
And that cold day when you lost control
Shame you left my life
So soon you should have told me

But you left me far behind

Now maybe
I didn't meant to treat you oh so bad
But I did it anyway
Now maybe

Some would say you're left with what you had
But you couldn't share the pain
No, no, no

Now maybe
I didn't mean to treat you oh so bad
But I did it anyway

No maybe
Some would say you're left with what you had
But you couldn't share the pain
I said times have changed your friends
They come and watch you crumble to the ground
They watch you suffer
Yeah they hold you down
Hold you down
Maybe brother, maybe love
I didn't mean to treat you bad

But you left me far behind

Left me far behind
Left me far behind
