lyrics

NOW THE DEED IS DONE
AND THE SMOKE HAS CLEARED
FROM THE ASHES SOME
GLIMMER OF THE TRUTH APPEARS

IT’S A BITTER PILL
A LITTLE HARD TO TAKE
I’LL BE THE FIRST TO CLAIM
MY SHARE OF MISTAKES

BY THE WAY THINGS STOOD
I DID THE BEST I COULD
DIDN’T I, DIDN’T I, DIDN’T I
TRY TO MAKE AMENDS
BE A FRIEND
DIDN’T I, DIDN’T I, DIDN’T I

NOW THE WINDOW’S CLOSED
OPPORTUNITY’S FLED
ALL THAT’S LEFT TO DO NOW IS
LOOK BACK AND SHAKE OUR HEADS

AND IT BREAKS MY HEART
AND IT MAKES ME MAD
AND I’LL NEVER KNOW HOW
SO GOOD WENT SO BAD

BY THE WAY THINGS STOOD
I DID THE BEST I COULD
DIDN’T I, DIDN’T I, DIDN’T I
TRY TO MAKE AMENDS
BE A FRIEND
DIDN’T I, DIDN’T I, DIDN’T I

MAYBE TIME’S THE ONLY WAY TO FIND
SOME WAY BACK FROM THIS

BY THE WAY THINGS STOOD
I DID THE BEST I COULD
DIDN’T I, DIDN’T I, DIDN’T I
TRY TO MAKE AMENDS
BE A FRIEND
DIDN’T I, DIDN’T I, DIDN’T I
