Best Regrets

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I keep my head low as I enter the square Don't know what to think or who might be there Been scared for so long, so long it's not true But I rue this day and I rue you too [Chorus] But I knew you in your time When alarm bells filled your mind And what was happening was happening With ten quarters and five dimes Now there's not much left to say It's just excuses for today So let's just save the list for the optimists Someone said they're on their way [Verse 2] So some guy once wrote betrayal takes two I guess I oughta know, since I think that's true I'm sorry that you, so strange for so long Cannot reanimate what is already gone [Chorus] But we could talk right through the night Under a pitch-black, moonless sky And what was possible was possible With no one asking why And I loved you when you ran 'Round in circles, 'round with plans Without permission or suspicions You even tolerated slang
