The lyrics are wrong on this

Gues you never really notice what you got til you finally realize she could be gone and i've been taking you for granted for the longest time all you wanted was someone who really cared and i didn't even notice you were there i promise that i'll never ever make that same mistake not twice

that was then, this is now took some time to come around now all i wanna do is try again, show you how i know what it's all about giving attention to you i was a fool for way too long what you wanted i could not see that was then, this is now took some to figure out love is all you need

Guess I never thought about it before I was thinkin' of myself And nothing more Didn't even wanna try to find out How you really feel [how you really feel] Now I see That I'm the lucky one It's true What we got You know I never want to lose I was trippin' in a fantasy And missing what was real

that was then, this is now took some time to come around now all i wanna do is try again, show you how i know what it's all about giving attention to you i was a fool for way too long what you wanted i could not see that was then, this is now took some to figure out love is all you need

I used to be someone Who really only really though about Themself and no one else And you could tell baby But that was before i understood when you got something good you gotta let her know and i want you to know

you're always my priorty and i wanna give you more than all the love you need took a little time but now i finally see that you're my world, yeah

i never want our love to fade ready, willing, and i'm gona do whatever it takes no, i'm never gonnal let it all slip away 'cause you're my girl, yes you are

that was then, this is now took some time to come around now all i wanna do is try again, show you how i know what it's all about giving attention to you i was a fool for way too long what you wanted i could not see that was then, this is now took some to figure out love is all you need

you're always my priorty and i wanna give you more than all the love you need took a little time but now i finally see that you're my world, yes you are

i never want our love to fade ready, willing, and i'm gonna do whatever it takes no, i'm never gonna let it all slip away 'cause you're my girl, yes you are

that was then, this is now took some time to come around now all i wanna do is try again, show you how i know what it's all about giving attention to you i was a fool for way too long what you wanted i could not see that was then, this is now took some to figure out love is all you need

coming around and ready to show you how i'm gonna change girl
