Lyrics
Well, I'm callin' you 'cause you deserve to know
You were not the reason that I had to go
Late at night in these hotel rooms
I think of all I've lost and what I've put you through
If I knew the reason I would tell you
Why somehow the feelin' slipped away
I only did what I had to do
Not 'cause I wanted to
I've got a guilty heart and a troubled mind
No matter where I go, they're never far behind
I'd like to think that you've forgiven me
But forgiveness ain't enough to wash my conscience clean
And if I knew the reason I would tell you
Why somehow the feelin' slipped away
I only did what I had to do
Not 'cause I wanted to
I only did what I had to do
Not 'cause I wanted to
