"When the love you need" by Clive Barnett

  • 0

I’m writing you this letter
To say I’m sorry
For ever breaking your heart

I was careless
I was so reckless
Those angry words should not have been said

How can I retract?
How can I go back?
The words once spoken remain.

The wind that is blowing
It’s cold and lonely
I think I hear it calling your name

The passing days have
Turned into months now
There are no words that I can say

How can I retract?
Though I live my life in present tense
I’m always thinking in the past.

Future perfect is so pretentious
When the love you need doesn’t last.

Instrumental:

How can I retract?...

Though I live my life in present tense
I’m always thinking in the past.
Future perfect is so pretentious
When the love you need doesn’t last
When the love you need doesn’t last
When the love you need just doesn’t last
