piercing words, eyes are red
watched your tail lights in the rain
empty heart filled with regret
i know we were both to blame
and i'm not sorry that it's over
but for the way we let it end
so i said all i had to say
in letters that i threw away
and you should know, please believe me
i've picked up the phone a thousand times
and tried to dial your number
but it's been so long, it's never easy
it's like trying to spin the world the other way
what can i say?
how did it come to this?
i think about you all the time
it's no excuse, but i wish
that i never made you cry
i'm not sorry that it's over
i couldn't find the words to say
what can i say?(what can i say?)
i hate to think all you had of me (i said all i had to say)
is a memory i left you
the space between what was meant to be (in letters that i threw away)
and the mess that it turned into
