Sorry to a Friend
Sitting on the edge
Looking for songs in a bottle
Talking with the strangers
Who don't know my pain
Blurry eyed and burned out
Chokin on more then I can swallow
A crack in a little voice
That calls out my name
She said "Whatever happened to you?
It's been two years where have you been?"
And I guess all my fears were true
The words are all gone
The times been too long
It's not too late to say
"Sorry to a friend"
What happened to my friend?
Staring in her face
I see the past it still haunts me
The road where we split up
Is paved with the things I didn't say
We had a wonderful times
But terrible timing
And just a leave her alone
I'll just be in her way
She said "Whatever happened to you?
You took the coward's way out again."
And i guess all my fears were true
The words are all gone
The times been too long
It's not too late to say
"Sorry to a friend"
Sorry to a friend (x3)
Like a stone in a stream
Life smooths out our edges
'Til we barely make a ripple anymore
And those times in my life
Live with me forever
But we're not the same people that we were before
And I'm sorry for the smiles we missed
The times that I blew it
I've got so much to tell you
I don't know where to start
Baby, I'll find a way
Maybe you'll help me do it
Because friends like us
Should not be apart
And im sorry to a friend
Well never sorry, im sorry, so sorry, sorry
And im sorry, oh yeah
