Album: Something for the Rest of Us

I called you up 10 years too late
Just to hear your voice again
And though your voice is still the same
I know that something's changed
My words are choked and full of tears
But still you listen to me dear
And someone's calling you away
And now I understand

The time that I've wasted
So bitter and faithless
Is wearing me down now, down Now

So can you hear me?
Or would you sing along or turn me down?
Forget I ever wrote this for you
So can you hear me?
Or has it been too long?
You know that I was wrong
And this is still your song

I turned it on and off again
And now I lost another friend
Who waded through my darkest thoughts
When I was sure to drown
And now I passed you on my way
And if you stopped what could I say?
Apologies for yesterday
Like a fool I walk away

The time that I've wasted
So bitter and faithless
Is wearing me down now, down now

So can you hear me?
Or would you sing along or turn me down?
Forget I ever wrote this for you
So can you hear me?
Or has it been too long?
You know that I was wrong
And this is still your song

All I understand
We're here and gone again
Moving through a thousand sleepless nights
I filled the page with my beliefs
It's all I have to keep
Tear it up and start again

So can you hear me?
Or would you sing along or turn me down?
Forget I ever wrote this for you
So can you hear me?
Or has it been too long?
You know that I was wrong
And this is still your song

I don't pretend to understand
All the thing's I put you through
And I don't need forgiveness
But I owe one thing to you
And this is your song
This is your song
