No Regrets

(アルバム： I've Been Expecting You - 1998)

Tell me a story
Where we all change
And we'd live our lives together
And not estranged

I didn't lose my mind it was
Mine to give away
Couldn't stay to watch me cry
You didn't have the time
So I softly slip away

No regrets, they don't work
No regrets now, they only hurt
Sing me a love song (Sing me a love song)
Drop me a line (Drop me a line)
Suppose it's just a point of view
But they tell me I'm doing fine

I know from the outside (When they all stare)
We looked good for each other (Some people said that)
Felt things were going wrong
When you didn't like my mother (It was all in your head)

I don't want to hate
But that's all you've left me with
A bitter aftertaste
And a fantasy of how we all could live

No regrets, they don't work
No regrets now, they only hurt
(We've been told you stay up late)
I know they're still talking
(You're far too short to carry weight)
The demons in your head
(Return the videos they're late)
If I could just stop hating you
(Goodbye)
I'd feel sorry for us instead

Remember the photographs (insane)
The one where we all laugh (so lame)
We were having the time of our lives
Well thank you it was a real blast

No regrets, they don't work
No regrets now, they only hurt
(We've been told you stay up late)
Write me a love song
(You're far too short to carry weight)
Drop me a line
(Return the videos, they're late)
Suppose it's just a point of view
(Goodbye)
But they tell me I'm doing fine

Everything I wanted to be
Every time I walked away
Every time you told me to leave
I just wanted to stay

Every time you looked at me
And every time you smiled
I felt so vacant
You treat me like a child

I loved the way we used to laugh
I loved the way we used to smile
Often I sit down and think of you for a while
Then it passes me by and I think of someone else instead
I guess the love we once had is officially dead
