i didn't mean (to run him away)

i didn't mean to run him away

i didn't mean

lord knows it breaks his heart not for anything

i didn't mean to mess up our lives

and i still can't believe i ran him away

if you see this boy i left crying

if you see this boy i left trying

to get over one of the dumbest things i've ever done

tell him i didn't mean to hurt him

like he said only i could

tell him that i still love him so

if you see this boy looking lonely

like he's lost his one and only

the one i looked for so long

then like a fool let him go

tell him that i'm sorry

and if he'll only come on back to me

tell him i wouldn't ever hurt him again

and i didn't mean to run him away

i didn't mean

lord knows to break his heart not for anything

i didn't mean to mess up our lives

and i still can't believe i ran him away

the best part of me i ran him away

if you see this boy

tell him i love him

if you see this boy

tell him i need him

and if he cares at all

to come on back and save my life

tell him it would be such a shame

to let our love go down the drain

and that everyone you know makes mistakes

and i didn't mean to run him away. i didn't mean to run him away.
