You look at me with all the regret in the world
|
Swimming in your eyes
|
I gulp it down
|
But, you know, it all comes back with stinging sourness
|
Did you believe me when I said that I didn't mean
|
To raise your hopes and then disappear
|
Or did you just smile because you believe
|
You're past the point of safe return, anyway
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
I never meant to make you sorry for loving me
|
I never meant to make you sorry
|
|
You hardly pretend to notice I'm even there
|
And I don't know if that's really right
|
You push it aside
|
But, you know, it only appears to go in deeper
|
And is it true you believe what I said wasn't real
|
That it was only a silly game
|
That just seems easier to believe
|
When you're past the point of safe return, anyway
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
I'm so sorry you were hurt
|
And I guess I can't say enough
|
It's no fun when you feel burned
|
But I guess it was hard for me to believe
|
You should have tried harder to make me see
|
Ah, hell, it got so hard for us to see
|
Past the point of safe return, anyway
|
|
[Chorus to end]
|
|
You could have had it how you wanted
|
But instead it tumbled down
|
Could have made us into something
|
But instead I made you sorry
|
Could have let me hear it someday
|
In the time that I was around
|
But you wanted me to pretend
|
Then I didn't want it anymore, anyway
|
