Why'd I have to go and be a fool again?
Why'd I have to go and make a big thing out of
nothing?
I didn't know what I had until you were gone
It was right in front of me all along
And now those days of 'same old story'
Feeling more like faded glory

Had it all
I threw it all aside
Thinking there was more that I needed to find
Had it all, baby
'Til you went away
Blue skies, sunshine, and butterflies
Those were the conditions that I left behind
Why did I let it go to waste?
I had it all

Where are all the fireworks I thought I'd see?
I still haven't found the magic I was looking for That made me leave
I traded in my comfort zone,
For empty nights of being alone

Had it all
I threw it all aside
Thinking there was more that I needed to find
Had it all, baby
'Til you went away
Blue skies, sunshine, and butterflies
Those were the conditions that I left behind
Why did I let it go to waste?

Why did I believe that little voice,
That lead me down the path to this bad choice,
Why don't I listen to the angels,
When they sing? (What do you know?)

Had it all
I threw it all aside
Thinking there was more that I needed to find
Had it all, baby
'Til you went away
Blue skies, sunshine, and butterflies
Those were the conditions that I left behind
Why did I let it go to waste?

Why did I have to go and be a fool again?
