My Favorite Regret
The day that we met
I'll never forget
I knew from the moment she spoke
The she was destined to be
My favorite regret
And all through the years
The joy and the tears
We shared like as greatest of friends
But she was destined to be
My favorite regret
Well, each moment we've spent
I've been almost content
Just to talk to her all through the night
But a part of me mourns
What will never be born
She's forever my favorite regret
He's gentle and kind
And totally blind
To not see the life we could lead
And he is destined to be
My favorite regret
In bad times and good
I've steadfastly stood
My passion just waits to be freed
But he is destined to be
My favorite regret
Well, I've got more to give
But I'm happy to live
In the shadow of what could’ve been
But a part of me yearns
Like an ember, it burns
Forever, my favorite regret
One day, when the stars fade
Will the echoes of my love
Arrive to you above
And wake you up at last
I'll take what I've got
Put the rest in a box
Addressed to the stars in the sky
And soon, up there with the Moon
My favorite regret
Forever, my favorite regret
