I wish I was better
That I could be everything
You’ve ever wanted me to be
Instead of barely anything

I want to be good enough
I want to be the best
Your favorite person in the world
The one you love the most

I made a lot of mistakes
Said things I can’t take back
And though you denied it
I’m afraid they drove you away

We had a chance to make
A fantastic thing happen
But you got afraid and I
Lost all we had going

I wish I was better
That I didn’t do those things
And I wish you were back
Here where I need you

I’m sorry I wasn’t enough
To hold you here with me
I loved you so very much,
I’m sorry I didn’t deserve you

I’m sorry I can’t be perfect
