Regrets (7" Version)

Barbara Wyrick

[Intro]
You know, when... a person does another person wrong
And  there's prob'ly a lot of ways to say "I'm sorry", but...
And  after that, hey, all you have to live with is your memories
But don't let it get you down, 'cause it happens to the best of us

[Verse 1]
Oh, I wish that I could take back
All  the things I've done to hurt you
I  didn't mean to be so cruel
And yet, I know I've been selfish
And  at times, a jealous fool

[Verse 2]
And every thoughtless thing that I've done
Keeps coming back to haunt me
Because you took each one
To  your little somber heart
And I realize, that it's my fault
But we've grown worlds apart...

[Chorus]
Oh, I have regrets
(I have regrets), regrets
For my mistaken thinkin' only of myself
Now that all I have left are these mean regrets
(I have regrets), regrets
For the things I did, somehow I just can't forgive
And I guess I'll always have to live with these mean regrets
Mmhm...

[Verse 3]
If I could right the wrong that I've done
Maybe I could stop believing
There's so much I'm guilty of, oh yeah
Yet it's too late to say "I'm sorry"
'Cause being sorry just ain't enough

[Verse 4]
'Cause with each angry word that I've said
Your love for me was dyin'
And each word left a lasting scar
And now I feel so helpless
Wishin' I could change the way things are

[Bridge]
I have regrets (I have regrets)
Oh Lord, oh Lord
Help me please

[Verse 3]
If I could right the wrong that I've done
Maybe I could stop believing
There's so much I'm guilty of, help me
Yet it's too late to say "I'm sorry"
'Cause being sorry just ain't enough

[Chorus/outro]
I have regrets
(I have regrets) oh, regrets
For my mistaken thinkin' only, so selfish, of myself
And now that all I have left are these regrets
(I have regrets) Ahh, yeah baby
I guess I just can't forgive
And I'll always have to live with these mean regrets
(I have regrets) Oh, regrets, yea-ah, ahhh...
