Lyrics

Verse 1

You stood there waiting by the doorway light,
I walked away instead of making things right.
Every little promise slipped right through my hands,
Now I think of my actions I don't understand.

Verse 2

I kept believing time would heal the cracks,
Never saw your tears while I was looking back.
Too much pride and not enough love to give,
I Know this life without you I chose to live.

Chorus

I call your name
I feel the pain.
I bear the shame
But I'm the one to blame

Instrumental

Middle 8

I hear your voice in every empty room,
Like an old familiar song I ended much too soon.
If I had one more chance, I'd say the words I missed,
But wishing never changes what already is.

Chorus
I call your name
I feel the pain.
I bear the shame
But I'm the one to blame

Middle 8
Maybe someday you'll find a better road,
Someone who can give you what I couldn't hold.
I'll carry this lesson for the rest of my days,
Knowing love was real, and I threw it away.

Verse 5
So if your memory finds me in the rain,
Hope the drops wash away the pain,
Too much pride and not enough love to give,
I Know this life without you I chose to live.

Chorus
I call your name
I feel the pain.
I bear the shame
But I'm the one to blame

Outro - Instrumental - mandolin and violin
