[Verse 1] Wasn't this supposed to be fun?
But somewhere along the way it got heavy
Since I saw you from across the lawn, light as the day
You said I told you what you wanted to hear
Well, you might be right but I meant every word
I whispered into your ear, besides I didn't mean to say

[Pre-Chorus] Before, I could go completely alone for days at a time
Without getting lonely
But I guess you left a hole in my chest
You carved out a spot and now I left it open

[Chorus] It's been too long
I need to hear your sweet voice again
Your sweet voice again
It's been too long
I need to hear your sweet voice again
Your sweet voice again

[Verse 2] Well, I hated that I made you cry
You wear your heart on your sleeve
And now you wanna use it to wipe the tears outta your eyes
You're getting salt in the wound
I wish you'd credit me for how hard I tried
'Cause some day you'll find someone who loves you better
But first you gotta learn how to fly on your own

[Pre-Chorus] Ooo, you had too many glasses
You say you don't remember that conversation
But I think you know how the saying goes
About the words come out in that kinda state
You said stay, so I stayed quiet
For once in my life I knew what I had to do

[Chorus] It's been too long
I need to hear your sweet voice again
Your sweet voice again
It's been too long
I need to hear your sweet voice again
Your sweet voice again

[Outro] Wasn't this supposed to be fun?
But somewhere along the way it got heavy
Since I saw you from across the lawn, light as the day
