Not Cause I Wanted To

Well I'm calling you

'Cause you deserve to know

You are not the reason that I had to go,

Late at night in these hotel rooms

I think of all I've lost,

What I've put you through

And if I knew the reason

I would tell you why somehow

The feeling 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

You're never far behind

I'd like to think

That you've forgiven me

But forgiveness ain't enough

To wash my conscience clean

Oh and if I knew the reason

I would tell you why somehow

The feeling 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
