I've done all the wrong things
I said all the wrong words
I was travelling to know where when I fell off the rails
I reached a new height on the sympathy scale
My head was full of you and your ridiculous beliefs
I kind of put my foot in it and you were underneath
So I'll say sorry I hope it will do
But words to that effect
Have no effect on you
So I'll say sorry I hope it will do
When the truths became lies
We said our goodbyes
You were suddenly aware of
All of the things that you've missed
You were searching for something that doesn't exist
You can talk about the missiveness and wanting to be free
Well that sounds really nice
But can't you spare a thought for me?
'Cause all these words inside
Can hide this feeling up the trail
And the only thing I've got to give is this apology
So I'll say sorry I hope it will do
Who can you blame when the damage is done?
Nothing has changed we're back at square one
And pretending to be having the time of our lives
When nothing much more than ex husbands and wives
We're trying to turn the clocks back
To find the missing piece
But every time we smile
We always smile through bridged teeth
I watch my head through my heart then my head fell to bits
But I made my own bed and now I'm lying in it
And saying sorry I hope it will do
But words to that effect
Have no effect on you
So saying sorry will never do
