Lyrics Deana Carter

Deana Carter

Before You Left

I tried to stop you but you’re already gone

If I could catch you and tell you I was wrong

Maybe my whole world wouldn’t fall apart

Maybe you’d open up your broken heart…

[CHORUS:]

WHAT HAVE I DONE? HOW COULD I LET

SOMETHING SO BEAUTIFUL SLIP THROUGH MY HANDS

NOW ALL I’VE GOT IS ALL OF THIS REGRET

I THOUGHT I WANTED YOU TO LEAVE ME BUT

THAT WAS BEFORE YOU LEFT.

I didn’t always love you the best that I knew how

That’s the thing about the quiet, I can hear you now

I didn’t know how much a heart could take

Till I watched you walk away…

[CHORUS]

[solo]

[CHORUS]
