Awful Sorry

Lucy Walsh
I've seen your face a million times
but now you're someone I don't recognize.
The clock up on the wall, it won't stop moving,
and time will not forget the things we lose.
You are not strong enough to hold me near.
You'd close your eyes and fall away from here.
You hurt me,
it had to be.
You've got to do what makes you happy.
That night I knew I had to walk away,
realizing there was nothing I could say.
I hurt you,
I had to..
You've got to know I'm awful sorry.
I feel so terrified at night.
It's like I'm trapped in someone else's life.
The shadows on the wall are playing games;
they won't let me forget the shape of you.
You are not strong enough to hold me near.
You'd close your eyes and fall away from here.
You hurt me,
it had to be.
You've got to do what makes you happy.
That night I knew I had to walk away,
realizing there was nothing I could say.
I hurt you,
I had to..
You've got to know I'm awful sorry.
This is where it's at,
you can't take it back.
In a heartbeat, it's suddenly over.
I don't understand
why you took my hand
and left me dreaming..
You are not strong enough to hold me near.
You'd close your eyes and fall away from here.
You hurt me,
it had to be.
You've got to do what makes you happy.
That night I knew I had to walk away,
realizing there was nothing I could say.
I hurt you,
I had to..
You've got to know I'm awful sorry.
You are not strong enough to hold me near.
You'd close your eyes and fall away from here.
You hurt me,
it had to be.
You've got to do what makes you happy.
That night I knew I had to walk away,
realizing there was nothing I could say.
I hurt you,
I had to..
You've got to know I'm awful sorry.
