Night Blue

I wish I could say I’m sorry
But I’m not
You ask «do you love me?» I say
«I forgot»
So you broke the pot on the window sill
You said you’ll replace it but you never will
I wish you would say you’re sorry
But you won’t
So put on your shoes, grab your coat
Why do I still hope you’ll turn back?
I’ll let it end soon but not like that
I watch the day turn blue
If I just got you I got nothing to lose
I know what I said it’s not what I meant
You apologize, I repent
Here we are in the same refrain
And since Thursday the same old rain
So I take the postcard off the wall
Pray today won’t bring the fall
Is one more night too much to ask?
Pretend I’ll let it be the last
I watch the day turn blue
If I just got you I got nothing to lose
But I want you anyway
I wish I could say I’m sorry
Like you want
You ask «do you love me?» I say
«Probably not»
In the half light of the window pane
I watch you walk away
