[Verse 1]
Piercing words, eyes are red
Watched your tail lights in the rain
Empty heart filled with regret
I know we were both to blame
[Pre-Chorus]
And I am not sorry that it is over
But for the way we let it end
So I said all I had to say
In letters that I threw away
[Chorus]
And you should know, please believe me
I have picked up the phone a thousand times
And tried to dial your number
But it is been so long, it is never easy
It is like trying to spin the world the other way
What can I say?
[Verse 2]
How did it come to this?
I think about you all the time
It is no excuse, but I wish
That I never made you cry
[Pre-Chorus]
I am not sorry that it is over
But for the way we let it end
I could not find the words to say
[Chorus]
And you should know, please believe me
I have picked up the phone a thousand times
And tried to dial your number
But it is been so long, it is never easy
It is like trying to spin the world the other way
So what can I say? What can I say?
What can I say? What can I say?
[Verse 3]
I hate to think all you had of me
(I said all I had to say)
Is a memory I left you
The space between what was meant to be
(In letters that I threw away)
And the mess that it turned into
[Chorus]
[Outro]
It is like trying to spin the world the other way
What can I say?
What can I say?
What can I say?
