Sorry
Vague sound of rain
pierces through my song again,
but I get distracted by the way his toes move when he plays, so I let it burn.
I just poured my heart out
there's bits of it on the floor,
but I take what's left of it and rinse it under cold water, and call him up for more.
And I say "Baby- yes I feel stupid to call you, but I'm lonely, and I don't think you meant it when you said you couldn't love me, and I thought maybe if I kissed the way you do- you'd feel it too."
He said "I'm sorry. So sorry. I'm sorry, so sorry."
He grabs my wrists
as my fingers turn into angry fists
and I whisper, "Why can't you love me? I'll change for you; I'll play the part."
And I say "Baby- so I feel stupid to call you, but I'm lonely, and I don't think you meant it when you said you couldn't love me, and I thought maybe if I kissed the way you do- you'd feel it too."
He said "I'm sorry. So sorry. I'm sorry, I am sorry." (2x!!)
