A Day Too Late

I told myself I wasn’t gonna be Just your one night stand But that’s exactly what I turned out to be Just that girl you used to love I used to be your everything Now I’m just that ex Who’s still so very much in love But the one you only fall back on When everything else falls apart And I keep telling myself That I’m gonna stop putting my heart thru this But when the chance comes To be wrapped in your arms Or to taste your sweet kiss Something inside me melts And I just can't resist I find myself falling back into your trap Back into all those old feelings I still can't escape And every time I know better Cuz I’m always the one that winds up getting hurt And yet still I let the cycle go on Everyone continues to ask me why And that’s one of the many questions I can't even answer for me myself and I I guess being your friend Beats not having you in my life at all But one day someone will see Something inside of me Something you never did One day someone is gonna come along And steal me away One day when you realize what you had All this time sitting right there in front of you One day it's gonna be too late And I’ll be gone for good Once and for all!
