[Verse 1]
~#**************#~
Oh, you were waiting for me, you saw me, adored me
~#**************#~
As I wish the whole world would
~#**************#~
You would never hurt me, desert me or work me
~#**************#~
For all the things you thought you could
~#**************#~
And you would lick the tears from my eyes when I cry
~#**************#~
How I missed you when I was gone
~#**************#~
Hurt me so to leave you, deceive you, I needed you
~#**************#~
I believed in you
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
Oh, I, I never meant to let you down
~#**************#~
Ill wait with a stake in my heart
~#**************#~
I never meant to put you down
~#**************#~
Im trying not to fall apart
~#**************#~
[Verse 2]
~#**************#~
Now all I have is riches and pictures and stitches
~#**************#~
Money could never buy what you gave
~#**************#~
And though my heart is achin and breakin, Im makin
~#**************#~
The most of what you send my way
~#**************#~
Now I want just to hold you, unfold you, I told you
~#**************#~
See, I am coming back for you
~#**************#~
Yeah, I know we will be okay everyday
~#**************#~
The sun shines a little brighter
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
Oh, I, I never meant to let you down
~#**************#~
Ill wait with a stake in my heart
~#**************#~
I never meant to put you down
~#**************#~
Im trying not to fall apart
~#**************#~
I never meant to let you down
~#**************#~
Ill wait with a stake in my heart
~#**************#~
I never meant to put you down
~#**************#~
Im trying not to fall apart
~#**************#~
[Bridge]
~#**************#~
Im trying not to fall apart
~#**************#~
Well reunite, oh, well set a light
~#**************#~
Im pushing with all of my might
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
Oh no, I never meant to let you down
~#**************#~
(I wait with a stake in my heart)
~#**************#~
I never meant to put you down
~#**************#~
(Im trying not to fall apart)
~#**************#~
I never meant to let you down
~#**************#~
(I wait with a stake in my heart)
~#**************#~
I never meant to put you down
~#**************#~
Yeah, Im trying not to fall
