If this is a ghetto, I'm in it with you |
|
If it's just a prison, I'm locked in it too |
|
I tried to leave you, but after all that we had said |
|
I went to pieces when I should have shouted and screamed |
|
instead: |
|
So sorry, I said |
|
Your powers of persuasion, those quizzical eyes |
|
Have tired and tied me, with innocent guile |
|
I would have walked out, and after all the tears we shed |
|
I should have stalked out, gone and painted the town bright |
|
red |
|
But instead |
|
So sorry, I said |
|
How tough it gets, don't talk to me about it! |
|
To pay off your debts, I worked on overtime |
|
And you say you never believed in luck |
|
If you need a reason, consider me mad |
|
An old retainer, loyal and sad |
|
I bought my freedom, but after all that we had shared |
|
I couldn't leave you think of the skins I'd have to shed |
|
instead |
|
So sorry, I said |
|
So sorry, I said |
|
So sorry, I said |
