said I was sorry 'cos I
I knew she'd been hurt
then she turned her back on me
and said what's your sorry worth
then I knew that things had changed
'cos sorry used to be the cure
I guess she heard it said too many times
'cos now I'm not so sure
now I'm choking on a feather
dustin' off the words to make it right
there's no atonement for this crime
no baby, not this time
she said we never had any good times
that she would rather forget
now she's walked out through that door
to leave this room of regret
I didn't see what was coming my way
I guess I waited too long to make my come back play
maybe she would just sit down and stay
If I found the right words to say
now I'm choking on a feather
dustin' off the words to make it right
there's no anullment for this crime
no baby, not this time
red sunsets on southern skies
as winter dawns
and our love dies
