I couldn't believe what I was seeing Faces all screwed up like what I'd done I didn't mean to hurt you so much I knew it would hurt you but not like this We all make a mess from time to time dear But it'll take me a lifetime to get this cleared Somebody muttered something under their breath But I let on like I was a little deaf Nobody's perfect that's what I say No one has hurt me so much you say I'm sorry Running away seemed like the easy Thing to do because I wanted time To put a smile back on my dour face For once nothing's missing and I feel fine I was afraid to tell you some things But some things all find a way to get told Hearing it from the lips of somebody else Must have knocked the wind out of your sweet chest
