Letter To Stacey

To free my heart I need to write this letter to Stacey
My own thoughts is something I've been together with lately
I checked your profile and saw you've found someone better to replace me
She'll never see these words, but I need to write this letter to Stacey

It's been two years since we broke up, so why am I writing this now
Sometimes it takes us a while to learn from mistakes
I forced the chapter to close before you were ready to turn the page 
I knew you were a queen, but I wasn't interested in providing a crown

We were both damaged, but you held yourself together better than I could
I fell hard for you, but I was scared because there was a lot I didn't understand in love
You were there for me in ways that I couldn't return 
I wish I had the strength to heal you because someone as amazing as you shouldn't hurt

I had dreams of making a wife of you
But nightmares from my past made me leave the side of you
I was wrong, immature and childish, I just pretended like you didn't exist 
My name isn't Earl, but making things right with you is at the top of my list

I don't mean I want you back, I just want you know I'm sorry
I lost in the end, because I let go of the girl who was always there for me
I had so long to make things right, but I was scared you would ignore me
You were there for me in every way, these days most girls I know only hit me up when they're horny

a few years ago that would have been my dream scenario 
We don't tend to realise how much someone means to us until our heart is broke
I'm sorry Stacey and I know these words are about 2 years too late
I know we've got older but growing up takes more than just becoming a new age
