If he ever knew what was gonna happen to
He knew eventually that it would never be
And if he ever knew what he was to say to you
He knows he said it wrong, he should've never led you on
And he always knew he should've just been straight with you
But then he always knew it's easier to say than do
And he always knew he should've just been frank with you
But then he always knew it's easier to say than do
He was lucky that you gave him the time of day
And he's sorry that he squandered it away
All the things he did, he didn't forget
As he thinks of all the synonyms for regret
He wasn't sure if it should even have all began
If with such certainty it should've ended then
Consequences more than he could perceive
And now that love is gone, the look you won't leave
He wanted badly to feel the way he felt for you
But those days were gone, the carryover wasn't long
And in the search for something he had lost so long ago
Was of much higher cost, a beautiful relation lost
And if he had the chance to change things, he wouldn't change
What he learned held too much worth, he learned too much about himself
And he's sorry that he learned at the expense of you
I guess that's how it goes, what will happen, no one knows
He never wanted things to end up like they did
You meant a lot to him and he just wasted it
Once forever is the way things should have been
Now that reverence reality set in
He's so casually, he doesn't know what to say
If he could say the things he wanted in the right way
He could come to terms with you and his guilt
And then he'd shatter the walls of regret he built
I never listened, no, I never
I never listened, no, I never
I never listened, no, I never
I never listened, no, I never
If he ever knew what was gonna happen to
He knew eventually that it would never be
And if he ever knew what he was to say to you
He knows he said it wrong, he should've never led you on
And he always knew he should've just been frank with you
But then he always knew it's easier to say than do
And he always knew he should've just been straight with you
But then he always knew it's easier to say than do
He was lucky that you gave him the time of day
And he's sorry that he squandered it away
All the things he did, he didn't forget
As he thinks of all the synonyms for regret
He wasn't sure if it should even have all began
If with such certainty it should've ended then
Consequences more than he could perceive
And now that love is gone, the look you won't leave
I never listened, no, I never (You never listened, no, you never)
I never listened, no, I never (You never listened, no, you never)
I never listened, no, I never (You never listened, no, you never)
I never listened, no, I never (You never listened, no, you never)
I never listened, no, I never (You never listened, no, you never)
I never listened, no, I never (You never listened, no, you never)
