I Didn't Realize

Seems like not long ago

Now two years have passed

I took you for granted

It ended too fast 'cuz I

I wasn't payin' much attention

To your needs,girl

You tried and tried a million times

You cried to me, girl

But I couldn't see

The pain you went through

I was killin' you soft

But I never knew, 'til I found

I found it in that lonely place

You left for me, girl

And now it's killin' me

That's how it's got to be, girl

Girl, you build my heart to break it down

Here I'm cryin' out but no one's around

What does it matter now?

What does it matter now?

I didn't realize that I love you

Till the day that you stopped lovin' me

I didn't realize that I cared for you

Till I heard the news that you're leaving me

Now I realize that I love you

And I'm hopin' that it's not too late

Please pack your bags and come on back

'Cuz now I realize that I'm in love with you

Two weeks have gone

My life is a mess

The closets are empty

Not even a dress girl, remains

I sit and wonder what

I could've done to please you

Is this the penalty for times

I would mistreat you?

Now there are no lips to kiss

And no hand to hold

There's no one to hear me

When I bare my soul and to see

To see you with somebody else

Would drive me crazy

Knowing you wanna fall in love

And have a baby

I'm standing here, broken down

Cryin' out, but girl, you're not around

What does it matter now?

What does it matter now?

I didn't realize that I love you

Till the day that you stopped lovin' me

I didn't realize that I cared for you

Till I heard the news that you're leaving me

Now I realize that I love you

And I'm hopin' that it's not too late

Please pack your bags and come on back

'Cuz now I realize that I'm in love with you

I apologize

For all the wrong things that I done

I'm sorry, babe

For all the right things that I didn't do

One thing that can change a man

Is living alone

Come back home, oh

I didn't realize that I love you

Till the day that you stopped lovin' me

I didn't realize that I cared for you

Till I heard the news that you're leaving me

Now I realize that I love you

And I'm hopin' that it's not too late

Please pack your bags and come on back

'Cuz now I realize that I'm in love with you

Yeah, yeah, yeah

(Yeah)

Yeah, yeah, yeah

(Come on, come on back to me)

Yeah, yeah, yeah

(I'm sorry)

Yeah, yeah, yeah

(Yeah, oh oh)

Now I realize that I love you

And I'm hopin' that it's not too late

Please pack your bags and come on back

'Cuz now I realize that I'm in love with you

Please pack your bags and come on back

'Cuz now I realize that I'm in love with you
