I wish that I could take back all of the things that I've done to hurt you I didn't mean to be so cruel And yet I know that I've been selfish And, at times, a just fool And every thoughtless thing I've done keeps comin' back to haunt me Because you took each one to heart And as I realize it's my fault We've grown worlds apart I have regrets, regrets For my mistakes an' thinking only of myself And all that I have left are these regrets, regrets For the things I did that somehow you just can't forgive I guess I'll always have to live with these regrets If I could right the wrong I've done maybe I could stop your leavin' But there's so much I'm guilty of And it's too late to say I'm sorry 'Cause bein' sorry is not enough 'Cause with each angry word that I've said your love for me was dyin' Each word left a lasting scar And right now I feel so helpless Wishin' I could change the way things are I have regrets, regrets For my mistakes an' thinking only of myself And all that I have left are these regrets, regrets For the things I did that somehow you just can't forgive I guess I'll always have to live with these regrets
