My greatest regret was the loss of you.
A rare gem I couldn't handle just because I was out of clues.
You had your favorite tunes in blues.
Should have treated you better when I saw him love you much harder.
Lost a lover, a friend and a soul mate, took you for granted.
Never knew this would come back to get me haunted.
Had to tell you how I felt, held back and now you sleeping comfortably on his chest.
Swore to keep you in line till you were ready to be mine.
Should have followed the blueprints you left.
Now running after you and blaming God for theft.
He gave me all I needed right here, ignored them because I was looking.
Gave me the ear to listen to my heart, wasn't paying attention.
Can't move on, can't stay in one place either, in a clueless condition.
Pushed you away, focusing on a dead ambition.
Had all the love to be humane, got busted in a self imposed hurricane.
Please call me when you fee like, I still want to change your last name.
Saw you by pass me and none could utter a word, that was strange.
Failed to shoot the shot when you were in range.
When you were mine, I was troublesome.
Losing my number nine, just to see you bare him a son.
Played my cards wrong when I could win with the queen, now all I am left with is a joker.
