Sorry To A Friend Lyrics

Sittin' on the edge

 Looking for songs in a bottle

 Talking with strangers who don't know my pain

 Blurry eyed and burned out

 Choking on more than I can swallow

 Crack in a little voice called out my name

 

 She said - Whatever happened to you

 It's been two years where have you been

 And I guess all my fears were true

 The words were all gone the time's been too long

 But I deserve to know what happened to my friend

 

 Staring in her face

 I see a past that still haunts me

 The road where we split up is paved with the things I didn't say

 We had wonderful times, but terrible timing

 Now just leave her alone, I'll just be in the way

 

 She said - Whatever happened to you

 You took the coward's way out again

 And I guess all my fears were true

 The words are all gone, the time's been too long

 But it's not too late to say I'm sorry to a friend

 I'm sorry to a friend

 Sorry to a friend

 

 Like a stone in a stream

 Life smoothes all our edges

 'Til we barely make a ripple any more

 But those times in my life will live with me forever

 But we're not the same people that we were before

 And I'm sorry for the smiles we missed and the times that I blew it

 I've got so much to tell you 

 I don't know where to start

 Maybe I'll find a way maybe you'll help me do it

 'Cause friends like us should not be apart

 

 And I'm sorry to a friend

 Well now I'm sorry
