Jack Wagner: After the fact [lyrics]

Jack Wagner

After the fact

"You know, a man can only take so much.

Then he's forced to let go of the things he loves"

I tried to tell you

All along

You weren't bein' smart

Just headstrong

You like to argue

Just to see who'd win

You didn't know

The stronger lover always gives in

After the fact

Well you know it's too late

And I'm not comin' back

After the fact

You said you made a mistake

But there's no more tomorrow

After the fact

Well there's no one to blame

When love fades away, oh no

All the "could haves"

And all the "should haves"

Never had a chance

Now it's all in the past

So why'd you wait till now

To say what you should've said before

You only think of it

As I'm walkin' out the door

After the fact

Well you know it's too late

And I'm not comin' back (no)

After the fact

You said you made a mistake

I'm tellin' you that it's over

After the fact

Well there's no one to blame

When love fades away, no

Too bad at the time

You did not understand

You were holding all of me, all of me

All of me in the palm of your hand
