Why did I say have
when I meant moment
Why did I say need
when I meant wanted

Why did I say forever
when I meant now
Why did I say never
when I meant how

Why did I say love
when I meant like
Why did I say left
when I meant right

Why did I say feeling
when I meant words
Why did I say given
when I meant earned

Why did I say willing
when I meant work
Why did I say okay
when I meant hurt

Why did I say together
when I meant alone
Why did I say for certain
when what I meant was wrong

Why did I say sure
when I meant sign
Why did I say effort
when I meant time

Why did I say open
when I meant true
Why did I say her
when I meant you.
