It sounds so sweetly
Coming from your lips
I hold it dearly
And pretend that I don't miss
All the nothings we once said

But it clouds the senses
To deny what they once loved
And turns to pensive
All that could have come
Souring to dread

I'm sorry I couldn't change
And that we needed closure
Just to feel a little sane
And that the posture
Caused you any pain
Please forgive me
For the things I cannot change

I wonder almost daily
And I wonder if you do too
If all love will plainly
End without its due
Just to find out that it's dead

Your thought comes so often
But you've probably moved right on
Did you try drugs to soften
I did for the void that your gone
To stop me from seeing red

I'm sorry I couldn't overcome
And that we needed space
So we didn't come undone
I hope the pace
Didn't caused you any pain
Please forgive me
For the things I cannot change
