Why Don't We Ever Say We're Sorry

(album: Twelfth - 2020)

When the whistle blows we'll be gone
A loss we'll share
Look back upon
Down an old switchback, a memory
Before you were you
Before I was me
Weren't we lovers in another life?
The sweetest life
The sweetest life
If I could keep a thing, I'd keep the days
Take back the words
The unkind ways

Why don't we ever say we're sorry?
Why can't we ever save the day?
Don't you want to see the sun come bright?
See the bad moon blown away?

My oh my, but ain't the weather nice?
Yes, once or twice
I thought it nice
You were much more than the famous one
But the wait is long
The wait is long

Why don't we ever say we're sorry?
Why don't we ever save the day?
Don't you want to see the sun so bright?
See the bad moon blown away?

Why don't we ever say
Why don't we ever say
Why don't we ever say we're sorry?
Why don't we ever say
Why don't we ever say
Why don't we ever say we're sorry?
Why don't we ever say
Why don't we ever say
Why don't we ever say we're sorry?
Why don't we ever say
Why don't we ever say
Why don't we ever say we're sorry?
