Lyrics from Live Performance

[Verse 1]
I knew this moment would come along
Felt somethin' change quite early on
Honesty, I think I remember when
I guess I just kept lookin' for the reasons I'd be wrong
Ignored the warning signs, it was easy to pretend

[Chorus]
Now, was I wrong to say that I loved ya
Even though I know that was true?
Wish I could've kept my distance then
And keep you as a dear old friend
You wouldn't be this stranger I once knew

[Verse 2]
I tend to say the same old lies
Over and over from time to time
Blind by pictures drawn up in my mind
Wish love could as simple as one and one is two
Just as forever would be us, just all the time

[Chorus]
Now, was I wrong to say that I loved ya
Even though I know that was true?
I wish I could've kept my distance then
And keep you as a dear old friend
You wouldn't be this stranger I once knew
[Bridge]
They say only the good times
Only the good times will linger
Will linger
From bitter to sweet wine
If you're takin' enough time
You fill up that hole in your heart, yeah

[Chorus]
Now, was I wrong to say that I loved ya
Even though I know that was true?
I wish I could've kept my distance then
And keep you as a dear old friend
You wouldn't be this stranger I once knew
I wish I could've kept my distance then
You'd still be a dear old friend
You wouldn't be this stranger I once knew
