Well there's three version of this story,
mine, and yours and then the truth.
Out of sentimental gain
I wanted you to feel my pain,
but it came back return to sender.
Is this the sound of sweet surrender?
What a shame we never listened.
And all that went away was the price we paid.
People spend a life time this way.
Oh what a shame.
I wrote a letter in my mind
but the words were so unkind
about a man I can't remember.
I don't recall the reasons why.
I must have meant them at the time.
Is this the sound of sweet surrender?
What a shame we never listened.
Words come easy when they're true.
