[Verse 1]
Lately I feel so all alone
Can't find the joy
You know that I'd be with you now
If I had the choice
[Pre-Chorus 1]
I know I hurt you when I said goodbye
And I don't know the reason
I ever stopped believing
I never needed anyone but you, oh
[Chorus]
I was too blind to see
When you belonged to me
You were my everything
Now I'd give anything
To feel the love you bring
You were my everything
[Verse 2]
They say time can mend a broken heart
And fix you up
But my life could never ever be the same
Without your touch
[Pre-Chorus 2]
I know you're still afraid to let me in
And I don't blame you really
I wouldn't let you see me
I took for granted you would always be there
[Chorus]
I was too blind to see
When you belonged to me
You were my everything
Now I'd give anything
To feel the love you bring
You were my everything
[Pre-Chorus 1]
I know I hurt you when I said goodbye
And I don't know the reason
I ever stopped believing
I never needed anyone but you, oh
[Chorus]
I was too blind to see
When you belonged to me
You were my everything
Now I'd give anything
To feel the love you bring
You were my everything
You were my life
You were my love
You were my everything
You were my life
Yeah
You were my everything
Oh woah
Yeah
You were my everything
Lately I feel so all alone
Can't find the joy
You know that I'd be with you now
If I had the choice
[Pre-Chorus 1]
I know I hurt you when I said goodbye
And I don't know the reason
I ever stopped believing
I never needed anyone but you, oh
[Chorus]
I was too blind to see
When you belonged to me
You were my everything
Now I'd give anything
To feel the love you bring
You were my everything
[Verse 2]
They say time can mend a broken heart
And fix you up
But my life could never ever be the same
Without your touch
[Pre-Chorus 2]
I know you're still afraid to let me in
And I don't blame you really
I wouldn't let you see me
I took for granted you would always be there
[Chorus]
I was too blind to see

You were my everything
Now I'd give anything
To feel the love you bring

Now I'd give anything
To feel the love you bring
You were my everything
You were my life
You were my love
You were my everything
You were my life
Yeah
You were my everything
Oh woah
Yeah
You were my everything
