Apologies

Verse 1

I saw you dancing with somebody new,

The way you smiled cut me straight in two.

I let the silence do all my talking,

Now I’m the ghost in the room you’re walking.

⸻

Pre-Chorus

I should’ve stayed, I should’ve tried,

But I let my pride eat me alive.

Now I’m watching you fade away,

And I don’t know what else to say.

⸻

Chorus

So take my midnight apologies,

Broken words you’ll never need.

I’ll sing them loud, but you won’t hear,

I lost your love, I lost you, dear.

So take my midnight apologies,

Drown them in the melodies.

I’ll keep on crying through the years,

While you save your tears.

⸻

Verse 2

Every echo feels like a song we played,

Every shadow still whispers your name.

I wear regret like a second skin,

I only lose, I never win.

⸻

Pre-Chorus

I should’ve stayed, I should’ve tried,

But I let my pride eat me alive.

Now I’m haunted by yesterday,

And there’s nothing left to say.

⸻

Chorus

So take my midnight apologies,

Broken words you’ll never need.

I’ll sing them loud, but you won’t hear,

I lost your love, I lost you, dear.

So take my midnight apologies,

Drown them in the melodies.

I’ll keep on crying through the years,

While you save your tears.

⸻

Bridge (soft, echoing)

I see you smile, but it’s not for me.

I see your love, but it sets me free.

⸻

Final Chorus

So take my midnight apologies,

Broken words you’ll never need.

I’ll sing them loud, but you won’t hear,

I lost your love, I lost you, dear.

So take my midnight apologies,

Drown them in the melodies.

I’ll keep on crying through the years,

While you save your tears.
