Regrets

(album: Let's Love While We Can - 1980)

I wish that I could take back
All of the things that I've done to hurt you
I didn't mean to be so cruel
And yet I know that I've been selfish
And at times a jealous fool

And every thoughtless thing I've done
Keeps coming back to haunt me
Cause you took each one to heart
Now as I realize that's my fault
We've grown worlds apart

I have regrets, regrets
For my mistake in thinking only of myself
And all that I have left
Are these regrets, regrets
For the things I did
That somehow you just can't forgive
I guess I'll always
Have to live with these regrets

If I could right the wrong I've done
Maybe I could stop your leaving
But there's so much I'm guilty of
That it's too late to say I'm sorry
Cause being sorry is not enough

Cause with each angry word that I've said
Your love for me was dying
And each word left a lasting scar
And right now I feel so helpless
Wishing I could change the way things are

I have regrets, regrets
For my mistake in thinking only of myself
Now all that I have left
Are these regrets, regrets
For the things I did
That somehow you just can't forgive
I guess I'll always
Have to live with these regrets
