-- Lyrics
I moved the glass to my lips took a sip and sighed Why does it feel like our life’s on a slip and slide Kids they add stress, work aint working the best But that ain’t the explanation why this love is a mess I guess priorities are prioritized over time And the only moments we spend are sleeping side by side Morning breaks, same old nags and complaints I’m just trying to drink my coffee if we engage then we’ll be late
I push it down to avoid a situation But all it does is come out in the public places Can’t be as open when they recognise our faces If they think it’s heated I guess that’s an understatement But it used to be alive be electric burning bright
There’s a spark left in the embers find some gasoline tonight Shut the world down put the past behind See the mountain got so far to climb Is all that’s left for you and I
Regrets I’m not saying it’s all in my head But I can’t help thinking what’s next When tomorrow is all we got left Confessing regrets Why’s there distance when we’re right here? Is the anger just proof we care? A love in war is not fair Confessing regrets
You’re too young to understand that daddy’s coming home Every time I leave the house you think I’m forever gone Guess it’s from the hundred calls goodnights on the telephone See this tour I got to get it done but why though?
Always said I’d pause work as soon as you came Without structure I just slipped into depression again This is just one of the things that I could never explain Each and every day Rolling the dice forever caught in the game
Still uprooting you both until the sickness started Missed appointments ripped apart Aimed to be the best dad here but missed the mark Breaking both you and your sister’s heart and your mother’s too
I see the wood for the trees cause there’s no other truth I gotta stop putting work so far in front of you Cause there is so much more love that a man can lose Trying to get back what I’ve lost sitting here and all I’ve got is
Regrets I’m not saying it’s all in my head But I can’t help thinking what’s next When tomorrow is all we got left Confessing regrets Why’s there distance when we’re right here? Is the anger just proof we care? A love in war’s not fair Confessing regrets
Three generations of women in my life They keep me stood I know that I don’t keep in touch with your mum as much as I should I know that you got your battles the same as me DNA in us we feel so much shame in us What we offer ain’t enough These thoughts get dangerous One way that the pain can stop Hope and pray that both my little girls they ain’t the same as us Missed out on so much I really need to make it up Take you on a plane and just, you know?
I wish there was more one on one and you didn’t share your son I wish you didn’t have to move away but that sort of thing comes When your identity shifts from being Mum and Imogen To having my stage name in front when you talk to anyone My mind’s all in a rut I’m unsure if it will stop If you reach out and think that I’m ignoring you I’m not I’m just lost in my head Wish I could pause the world and then I’d talk it out with you and say Mum I’m here again with
Regrets I’m not saying it’s all in my head But I can’t help thinking what’s next When tomorrow’s all we got left Confessing regrets Why’s there distance when we’re right here? Is the anger just proof we care? A love in war’s not fair Confessing regrets
