Piercing words, eyes are red Watched your taillights 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 tryin' 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 But for the way we let it end I couldn't find the words to say
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 tryin' to spin the world the other way What can I say? What can I 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, place between what was meant to be (In letters that I threw away) And the mess that it turned into
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 tryin' to spin the world the other way It's like tryin' to spin the world the other way What can I say? What can I say? What can I say?
