Why Don't We Ever Say We're Sorry
Rhett Miller, Ken Bethea, Murry Hammond, Philip Peeples
When the whistle blows
We'll be gone
A loss we'll share
Look back upon
Down an old switchback
A memory
Before you were you
Before I was me
Weren't we lovers in another life?
The sweetest life
The sweetest life
If I could keep a thing
I'd keep the days
Take back the words
The unkind ways
Why don't we ever say we're sorry?
Why can't we ever save the day?
Don't you want to see the sun come bright
See the bad moon blown away?
My oh my but ain't the weather nice
Yes, once or twice, I thought it nice
You were much more than the famous one
But the wait is long
The wait is long
Why don't we ever say we're sorry?
Why don't we ever save the day?
Don't you want to see the sun so bright
See the bad moon blown away?
Why don't we ever say we're sorry?
