Why'd I have to go and be a fool again?
Why'd I have to go and make a big thing outta nothing?I didn't know what I had 'til you were gone
It was right in front of me all along
And now those days of the same old story
Are feelin' more like faded gloryI had it all, I threw it all aside
Thinkin' there was more there I needed to find
I had it all, baby, 'til you went awayBlue skies, sunshine, and butterflies
Those were the conditions that I left behind
Why did I let it go to waste? I had it allSo where are all the fireworks I thought I'd see?
I still haven't found the magic I was lookin' for that made me leave
Oh no, I traded in my comfort zone
For empty nights of bein' aloneI had it all, I threw it all aside
Thinkin' there was more there I needed to find
I had it all, baby, 'til you went awayBlue skies, sunshine, and butterflies
Those were the conditions that I left behind
Why did I let it go to waste?Why did I believe that little voice
That led me down the path to this bad choice?
Why don't I listen to the angels when they sing?
Oh yeah, they sing, oh yeah, ohI had it all, I threw it all aside
Thinkin' there was more there I needed to find
I had it all, baby, 'til you went awayBlue skies, sunshine, and butterflies
Those were the conditions that I left behind
Why did I let it go to waste? I had it all
Why did I let it go to waste? I had it allWhy'd I have to go and be a fool again?
