I Didn't Realize

Seems like not long ago
 Now two years have passed
 I took you for granted
 It ended too fast 'cuz I
 I wasn't payin' much attention
 To your needs, girl
 You tried and tried a million times
 You cried to me, girl
 But I couldn't see
 The pain you went through
 I was killin' you soft
 But I never knew, 'til I found
 I found it in that lonely place
 You left for me, girl
 And now it's killin' me
 That's how it's got to be, girl
 Girl, you build my heart to break it down
 Here I'm cryin' out but no one's around
 What does it matter now?
 What does it matter now?
 I didn't realize that I love you
 Till the day that you stopped lovin' me
 I didn't realize that I cared for you
 Till I heard the news that you're leaving me
 Now I realize that I love you
 And I'm hopin' that it's not too late
 Please pack your bags and come on back
 'Cuz now I realize that I'm in love with you
 Two weeks have gone
 My life is a mess
 The closets are empty
 Not even a dress girl, remains
 I sit and wonder what
 I could've done to please you
 Is this the penalty for times
 I would mistreat you?
 Now there are no lips to kiss
 And no hand to hold
 There's no one to hear me
 When I bare my soul and to see
 To see you with somebody else
 Would drive me crazy
 Knowing you wanna fall in love
 And have a baby
 I'm standing here, broken down
 Cryin' out, but girl, you're not around
 What does it matter now?
 What does it matter now?
 I didn't realize that I love you
 Till the day that you stopped lovin' me
 I didn't realize that I cared for you
 Till I heard the news that you're leaving me
 Now I realize that I love you
 And I'm hopin' that it's not too late
 Please pack your bags and come on back
 'Cuz now I realize that I'm in love with you
 I apologize
 For all the wrong things that I done
 I'm sorry, babe
 For all the right things that I didn't do
 One thing that can change a man
 Is living alone
 Come back home, oh
 I didn't realize that I love you
 Till the day that you stopped lovin' me
 I didn't realize that I cared for you
 Till I heard the news that you're leaving me
 Now I realize that I love you
 And I'm hopin' that it's not too late
 Please pack your bags and come on back
 'Cuz now I realize that I'm in love with you
 Yeah, yeah, yeah
 (Yeah)
 Yeah, yeah, yeah
 (Come on, come on back to me)
 Yeah, yeah, yeah
 (I'm sorry)
 Yeah, yeah, yeah
 (Yeah, oh oh)
 Now I realize that I love you
 And I'm hopin' that it's not too late
 Please pack your bags and come on back
 'Cuz now I realize that I'm in love with you
 Please pack your bags and come on back
 'Cuz now I realize that I'm in love with you
