Once you said you loved me
Placed no one above me
Prayed for me to make that vow
What dumb thing did I say
So busy being blasé
How I wish you'd ask me now
I was vain and bind then
Prone to be unkind then
Wish they'd turn back time somehow
Then I was [Am7]audacious
I ignored what was [Am7]precious
How I wish you'd ask me now
I thought then I'd always be
Footloose and [Bm]fancy free
How could I have been so blind
What I once made light of turned out to [C7]be [Am]tɾue love
Once my [A]ego ɾuled me
Flattered me and [Bm]fooled me
More times than the laws allow
You asked me could I care
My attention [C7]was [Am7]elsewhere
How I wish you'd ask me now
