Oak Avenue

(album: Trying To Fit The Ocean In A Cup - 2008)

I got the call this mornin
At seven forty five
Ben told me what happened to you
Someone blew right through that light
Couldn't stop in time
You didn't make it past Oak Avenue

Well now you got me thinking
That I should have thought twice
Before I said the things I should have never said to you
Now the chance to make amends
The chance to apologize
Is the silent and cold Oak avenue

Why did I wait
To say the words inside of my head
I'm sorry
Now It's too late
Sorry is what I should have said
And I could have told you before Oak Avenue

If I would have known
That we were running out of time
I would have broken down and talked to you
Now I have to face the truth
That's cooler than my pride
Now I have to face Oak Avenue

Why did I wait
To say the words inside of my head
I'm sorry
Now it's too late
Sorry is what I should have said
And I could have told you before Oak avenue

(I should have told you)
Oak Avenue
(I should have told you)
Oak Avenue
(I should have told you)

Why did I wait
(should have said I'm sorry)
To say the words inside of my head
(Should have said I'm sorry)
I'm sorry
Now it's too late
(Should have said I'm sorry)
Sorry is what I should have said
And I could have told you

I should have told you
That I'm sorry
That I loved you
Yeah I'm sorry
I didn't mean to, no
I'm so sorry
And I could have told you before Oak Avenue

I got the call this morning
at seven forty five
Ben told me what happened
To you
