In my younger days, I tried to be your strength
But I was young too and that did more harm than did good
I wanna figure out where we are now
I wanna heal our wounds and only time will tell
Will you let me in? Will you fill this space?
And I'll share with you, and I'll show you my truth
I was just a child trying to raise some kids
Took on many responsibilities that weren't meant for me
I took it out on you that wasn't fit to do
And I'm learning now
And I should've told you then
That I love you and that I care
And that you are so perfect
Should've told you back then
Should've told you back then
And to that young girl who fought on her own
Took on all the pain and has the bruises to prove it
You fought for me, you fought for them
It's my turn now, 'cause you protected me then
So let me share my love with you
Let me take away the pain, it's time for us to move
I took it out on you that wasn't fit to do
And I'm learning now
And I should've told you then
That I love you and that I care
And that you are so perfect
Should've told you, should've told you back then
Should've told you, should've told you back then, oh
And I should have told you back then
That I love you (I love you)
That I care (I will always care)
That you are so perfect (you're perfect)
Should have told you, should have told you back then
So this is my song for you
Because I love you, and you deserve it
Oh, oh, oh, ooh, you deserve it, yeah
