Etham There For You Lyrics

[Intro]
(You)

[Verse 1]
I never wanted this to be hard
The thought of hurting you and me left with a scar
I'm holding back and holding our breath
Building up to things I regret

[Pre-Chorus]
But, if we were honest, maybe we could repair
All the damage we've done, what was left unsaid
And I'm sorry I wasn't what you planned
That's okay, even if you weren't too attached
Oh, I know it's all too late
[Chorus]
I shoulda been there for you
Now, my heart, it won't rest
I'm such a mess
Yeah, I shoulda been there for you
When you needed me most
And I wasn't close
Yеah, I shoulda been there for you, you
Yeah, I shoulda been thеre for you, you
Mm

[Verse 2]
Take me back to when we first met
The first time, the butterflies, when everything just made sense
And I had sworn to myself that I
Would never do anything to make you cry

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, honest was what I tried to be But it takes two to say the things we both need
I know it's all too late

[Chorus]
I shoulda been there for you
Now, my heart, it won't rest
I'm such a mess
Yeah, I shoulda been there for you
When you needed me most
And I wasn't close
Yeah, I shoulda been there for you, you
Yeah, I shoulda been there for you, you
[Bridge]
Oh-oh-oh
I took things for granted, I took it too far
Bad habits we made, everything we lost
And I feel so ashamed I couldn't give you more

[Chorus]
'Cause I shoulda been there for you
Now, my heart, it won't rest
I'm such a mess
Yeah, I shoulda been there for you
When you needed me most
And I wasn't close
Yeah, I shoulda been there for you, you (Oh-oh-oh)
Yeah, I shoulda been there—, you, you (Oh, oh, oh, oh-oh-oh)
Oh, I shoulda, I shoulda—, you (You), you (Oh-oh-oh)
Oh, I shoulda been there for you, you
