What Do You Want Me To Say

I see pieces of your heart all over the floor
You been gone for days but there’s always one more
Got half a mind to pick up my life and follow you out that door
But something tells me to say what I never said before

I’m sorry baby forever you don’t deserve to be blue
But if you ever forgive me don’t be surprised if I do
Exactly what I have always done I don’t know no other way
I’m sorry baby forever what do you want me to say

The day you left I shed a single tear of bittersweet regret
And said a prayer you would someday find a way to forget
How our bodies fit so perfectly like a skeleton duet
Maybe time will erase all but my silhouette

I’m sorry baby forever you don’t deserve to be blue
But if you ever forgive me don’t be surprised if I do
Exactly what I have always done I don’t know no other way
I’m sorry baby forever what do you want me to say

Now don’t you worry I’m getting everything I’m due
The tasty payback I deserve for the things I can’t undo
What goes around well it comes right back to you
Sooner or later you know it’s true
