Lyrics
i'm not a perfect person.
there are many things i wish i didnt do
but i continue learning.
i never meant to do those things to you.
and so i have to say before i go,
that i just want you to know
i've found a reason for me,
to change who i used to be
a reason to start over new, and the reason is you
i'm sorry that i hurt you,
its something i must live with everyday
and all the pain i put you through,
i wish that i could take it all away
and be the one who catches all your tears,
thats why i need you to hear
i'm not a perfect person,
i never meant to do those things to you
and so i have to say before i go
that i just want you to know
i've found a reason for me,
to change who i used to be
a reason to start over new,
and the reason is you
i've found a reason to show a side of me you didnt know
a reason for all that i do,
and the reason is you
