Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You bit your lip and on the tip of your tongue was your view
He hadn't dealt with how you felt in ways that suited you
Got paper cuts from the love letters you never gave him
Could not meet your newfound needs for misbehavin'
[Verse 2]
Why, why would you say sorry?
Oh, why would you, why would you say
[Verse 3]
You said there was a naggin' lack of smiles when dancin' on your back
Tenderness a-plenty but that wasn't what you craved
There's holes in hearts, desire starts to make demands
And dear, boy, you'd be a fool to make you plans with her
[Verse 4]
Why would you say sorry?
Oh, why would you, why would you say sorry?
Oh, why would you say sorry?
Oh, why would you?
[Verse 5]
When it's just one of many bullets you will bite
While waitin' for a ray of light
Waitin' for a ray of light
Waitin' for a ray of light
[Verse 6]
Got paper cuts from the love letters you never gave him
Could not meet your newfound needs for misbehavin'
[Verse 7]
Why, why would you say sorry?
Oh, why would you, why would you say sorry?
Oh, why would you say sorry?
Oh, why would you?
[Verse 8]
(Why would you) Why would you say sorry?
(Why would you) Why would you say sorry?
(Why would you) Why would you say sorry?
(Why would you) Why would you say sorry?
[Verse 9]
(Why would you)
(Why would you)
(Why would you)
(Why would you)
