[Verse 1]
Called you up ten years too late
Just to hear your voice again
And though your voice is still the same
I know that something's changed
My words are choked and full of tears
But still you listen to me, dear
And someone's calling you away
And now I understand

[Pre-Chorus]
The time that I've wasted
So bitter and faithless
Is wearing me down now
Down now

[Chorus]
So can you hear me
Or would you sing along?
Or turn me down?
Forget I ever wrote this for you?
So can you hear me
Or has it been too long?
I know that I was wrong
And this is still your song

[Verse 2]
Turn it on and off again
And now I lost another friend
Who waded through my darkest thoughts
When I was sure to drown
And now I pass you on my way
And if you stopped, what could I say?
Apologies for yesterday
Like a fool I walk away

[Pre-Chorus]
The time that I've wasted
So bitter and faithless
Is wearing me down now
Down now

[Chorus]
So can you hear me
Or would you sing along?
Or turn me down?
Forget I ever wrote this for you?
So can you hear me
Or has it been too long?
I know that I was wrong
And this is still your song

[Bridge]
And all I understand
We're here and gone again
Even through a thousand sleepless nights
I fill the page with my beliefs
It's all I have to keep
Tear it up and start again

[Chorus]
So can you hear me
Or would you sing along?
Or turn me down?
Forget I ever wrote this for you?
So can you hear me
Or has it been too long?
I know that I was wrong
And this is still your song

[Outro]
I don't pretend to understand
All the things I put you through
And I don't need forgiveness
But I owe one thing to you
And this is your song
This is your song
