Sorry - The Colourfield

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
