Lyrics

The bigger picture, I'll be with you
Many years from now
So go your own way, do your own thing
I don't see it working out
Gave permission to take the easy way out
Bad decision, 'cause I'm here missing you now
But I can't be mad for loving you that way
I can't be mad I gave you my heart to break
Can drown in sorrow, try to numb the pain
But I can't be mad because I'm the one to blame
Seeing pictures, and I ain't with you
No longer you and I
You don't hurt like you should
And it seems you're all good
Honestly, I don't know why
I gave permission to take the easy way out
Bad decision, but I won't scream and shout
Baby, I can't be mad for loving you that way
I can't be mad I gave you my heart to break
Can drown in sorrow, try to numb the pain
But I can't be mad because I'm the one to blame
Oh, it's like broken pieces I left on a shelf
While you're looking happy, I'm going through hell
It's not the way that I thought it would be
But you'll come back to me
And I won't be mad for loving you that way
And I can't be mad I gave you my heart to break
I can't be mad for loving you that way
I can't be mad I gave you my heart to break
Oh, babe
Drown in sorrow, try to numb the pain
But I can't be mad because I'm the one to blame
Yeah, I can't be mad 'cause I let you slip away
