No Regrets

was first released in 1998 on the studio-album "I've Been Expecting You".

Lyrics

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
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
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 ones 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've stayed out 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
