I Wish I Had Loved Her That Way

He brings her flowers for no special reason

He just wants to show her he cares

He always remembers those special occasions

And brags on the clothes that she wears

He does all the little things I never did

And he knows all the right words to say

He's giving her what she deserves

Oh, I wish I had loved her that way

He always listens when she feels like talking

And he understands like a friend

He holds her close when she can't help crying

Oh, I wish I had held her back then

He's mending a heart that I left in pieces

He's found what I threw away

And he's giving her what she deserves

Oh, I wish I had loved her that way

It takes a fool to lose the love of a lifetime

Why do fools always find out too late

She's in good hands now that she's out of mine

Oh, I wish I had loved her that way

Oh, I wish I had loved her that way
