I should have known all along, there was something wrong

Then I woke up one day and found you on your way

Leaving nothing but my heart behind

What can I do to make it up to you
make it up to: 报答(补偿)
Promises don't come easy
promise: 诺言  easy: 轻易地,容易得到的
But tell me if there's a way to bring you back home to stay
bring back: ...带回来
Well I'd promises anything to you
 
I've been walking around with my head hanging down
walk around: 游荡(无目地行走)  hang: 垂下  down: 向下
Wondering what I'm gonna do

'Cause when you walked out that door
I knew I needed you more
Than to take a chance on losing you

What can I do to make it up to you
Promises don't come easy
You know I've made up my mind to make it work this time

That's the promise that I give to you
