Prodigal's Regret (Never Should Have Left You)

Oh, how could I have hurt you?
Living cold and reckless
What a careless fool I've been
To have taken you for granted
Me, the man with all the answers
Never stopped to notice
You were my savior and my friend
I never should have left you

Now I'm standing in your shadow
Waiting as the tears begin to fall
I never should have left you
I never should have left you
Oh, I'd give my life for one chance
To have you back again
But I've taken all my chances
I turned and I walked away

Love will carry on forever
Leaving many wounded
Heartaches never meant to be
The scars will always be there
Still, I don't think I can make it
Living with a memory
I lost a love I failed to see
I never should have left you

Now I'm standing in your shadow
Waiting as the tears begin to fall
I never should have left you
Never should have left you
Oh, you gave your life for one chance
That I might live again

I never should have left you
I took your love for granted
I never should have left you
I never should have left you
