Grace Potter and the Nocturnals

Apologies.

Yesterday, he said my eyes were fading fast away

I said, "Well, what do you expect? You asked me not to stay

And if it had all been for the best, I wouldn't feel this way"

He said

Oh he said, he said it's crazy, how love stays with me

You know it hurts me, 'cause I don't wanna fight this war

And it's amazing to see me reading through this scene

Of love and fear and apologies

Apologies

My love is like a blanket

That gets a little bit too warm sometimes

I wanna wrap somebody in it

Who can hold me in his arms

'Cause when it got a little too hot in there

He was always stepping out for air and he froze

Oh, he froze

Oh he says it's crazy, how love stays with me, yeah

You know it hurts me, 'cause I don't wanna fight this war

And it's amazing to see me reading through this scene

Of love and fear and apologies

Apologies

Yesterday, he looked at me

With a tear in his eye and said

"I'll always tell you you're my friend

I hope I don't have to lie

'Cause it's clear you love another man"

I said, "You're damn right"

And he said

Oh he said, he said it's crazy, how love stays with me

You know it hurts me, 'cause I don't wanna fight this war

And it's amazing to see me reading through this scene

Of love and fear and apologies

He says it's crazy how love stays with me, yeah

You know it hurts me that I didn't figure it out before

And now it's too late for a soliloquy

Way too late for dignity

It's time for apologies, apologies

Apologies, apologies
