lyrics

In the morning I’m up, and awake, and alone
In the kitchen doing the dishes that I’ve left all week long
Already forgetting the dream I had last night
Where you said goodbye for the last time

I’ve heard that everything gets better with age
Like the books on my shelf or my old dog we left in a cage
And lately I’ve been waking up at six a.m.
Just to watch the sunrise and to miss you
All over again

Lover I’m sorry,
I’m sorry I threw it all away
Lover I’m sorry
It’s been a long time since you called me lover
Anyway

So it goes and this too shall pass
And the months will slip by like sand in the hourglass
And I’ll often wonder if I was wrong
But my dreams won’t let me sleep in too long

And I’m older now than I was yesterday
And I remember feeling this exact same way
Back when I was seventeen,
And love didn’t seem so cold and so mean

Lover I’m sorry,
I’m sorry I threw it all away
Lover I’m sorry
It’s been a long time since you called me lover
Anyway (X2)
