| I’ve done all the wrong things
|
| I said all the wrong words
|
| I was travelling to nowhere 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 the things that you’ve missed
|
| You were searching for something
|
| That doesn’t exist
|
| You can talk about permissiveness 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’t 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
|
| But words to that effect
|
| Have no effect on you
|
| 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
|
| We’re nothing much more
|
| Than ex husbands and wives
|
| We’re trying to turn the clock back
|
| To find the missing piece
|
| But every time we smile
|
| We always smile through gritted 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 |
