Before you go, just listen 
And I'm sorry 
For all the things I've done to you 
You know that I'm sorry 
For all the things I've put you through 

You see I 
You see I never did realize 
How it must have felt in your eyes 
Complacency was my disguise 
Until the day that I found you 
Will I ever see the day 
When I turn around and say 
Things shouldn't be this way 
But all I know is 
I feel all alone 

And all I ever wanted 
Was to be your hero 
And all I ever wanted 
Was to be your friend 

Do you remember 
The way it used to be 
I know you remember 
Maybe we could make it real 

You see I never did realize 
How it must have felt in your eyes 
Complacency was my disguise 
Until the day that I found you 
Will I ever see the day 
When I turn around and say 
Things shouldn't be this way 
But all I know is 
I feel all alone 

And all I ever wanted 
Was to be your hero 
And all I ever wanted 
Was to be your friend 

And all I ever wanted 
Was to be your hero 
And all I ever wanted 
Was to be your friend 

Before you go, listen to the things I have to say 
Before you judge, don't you let your pain judge me this way 
Before you leave, give me just a second to explain 
All the things I'm feeling inside 

And all I ever wanted 
Was to be your hero 
And all I ever wanted 
Was to be your friend 

And all I ever wanted 
Was to be your hero 
And all I ever wanted 
Was to be your friend
