Regret Lyrics

Maybe I've forgotten the name and the address
Of everyone I've ever known, it's nothing I regret
Save it for another day
It's the school exam, the kids have run away
I would like a place I call my own
Have a conversation on the telephone
Wake up everyday that would be a start
I would not complain of my wounded heart, oh no
I was upset you see
Almost all the time
You used to be a stranger
And now you are mine
I wouldn't even trust you
I've not got much to give
We're dealing in the limits here
And we don't know who with
You may think that I'm out of hand
That I'm naive, I'll understand
On occasion, it's not true
Look at me and I'm not you
I would like a place that I call my own
Have a conversation on the telephone
Wake up every day that would be a start
I would not complain of my wounded heart, oh no
I was a short fuse
Burning all the time
You were a complete stranger
And now you are mine
Just wait until tomorrow
I guess that's what they all say
Just before they fall apart

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
