Well, she was fightin' for somethin' steady
And I was fightin' her all fours and ready for
Anything that felt too heavy
Got damn good at leadin' her on
But now she's gone
I let her go without a second thought
Now I'm the only one that can't move on
Still wantin' it, still I'm wonderin'
If I would have chased her
Would have just tried
Wouldn't have felt the sting of her goodbye
If I would've set aside a little more time and a lot more pride
Would she still be mine?
I should've known better
Should've made the last call over the phone better
Should've been a little bit more of a go-getter
Would've saved myself from a whole lot of hurt
If I would've chased her
I wouldn't be kickin' myself
'Cause we'd be busy kickin' dust on a dirt road
Wherever the wind blows
'Stead I'm in hell
Watchin' her run, and run, and run, and run
'Cause now she's gone
I let her go without a second thought
Now I'm the only one that can't move on
Still wantin' it, still wonderin'
If I would've chased her
Would've just tried
Wouldn't have felt the sting of her goodbye
If I would've set aside a little more time and a lot more pride
Would she still be mine?
I should've known better
Should've made the last call over the phone better
Should've been a little bit more of a go-getter
Would've saved myself from a whole lot of hurt
If I would've chased her
Ooh, no, no
If I would've chased her, yeah-yeah
I shoulda known better
Now I'm all alone, sippin' somethin' to forget her
Knowin' that it's probably gonna take me forever
'Til then I'll still be wantin' it, still wonderin'
If I would've chased her
Would've just tried
Wouldn't have felt the sting of her goodbye
If I would've set aside a little more time and a lot more pride
Would she still be mine?
I should've known better
Should've made the last call over the phone better
Should've been a little bit more of a go-getter
Would've saved myself from a whole lot of hurt
If I would've chased her
Ooh, no-oh-oh
If I would've chased her, yeah-yeah
If I would've chased her
