Linneah - I Should've Left You At The Altar Lyrics

I just hoped that someday
Someone would love me
I always wanted someone to have
And someone that I could hold
I used to think it was like the movies
And the romance that I was sold
I couldn't wait to get older to
Find a love that's pure and true
And then the day came, we finally met
And I thought I'd found it in you
But life had a bigger lesson to teach me
A lesson that I'd have to live through
I should've left you at the altar
Listened to my father
Saw the red flags and walked away
I should've trusted all my instincts
Listened to what my friends think
Now I question why would I have stayed
I should've left you on our wedding day
I should've left you on our wedding day
I should've left you at the alter
I should've listened to my father
And I think back on that day
So naive
Learning about what love should
Really not be
The blatant disrespect
That you showed me
In front of our entire family
Your shitty vows
Said in the open
A sign how we were broken
The way you laughed it off
Like it's nothing
And how you told me I'm dramatic
My heart started to panic
I should've just given back your ring
I should've left you at the altar
Listened to my father
Saw the red flags and walked away
I should've trusted all my instincts
Listened to what my friends think
Now I question why would I have stayed
I should've left you on our wedding day
I should've left you on our wedding day
I should've left you at the alter
I should've listened to my father
And now this divorce has got messy
And I'm always filled with shame
I swear you dim my f*cking light
And still, convince me I'm to blame
You hold so many things against me
God this really isn't love
I hope one day I can learn again
Who I can and cannot trust
Because the lies you brought into
Our wedding day
Will stick forever
But I finally believe now
That I can do so much goddamn better than you
That I deserve better than you
I should've left you at the altar
Listened to my father
Saw the red flags and walked away
I should've trusted all my instincts
Listened to what my friends think
Now I question why did I stay
I should've left you on our wedding day
