No Regrets
Emmylou Harris · Portraits [Warner] [1996]
(Tom Rush)
I know your leaving's too long overdue
For too long I've had nothing new to show you, goodbye
Dry eyes, I've watched your plain feet off west to the moon
It felt so strange to walk away alone.
No regrets, no tears, goodbye,
Don't want you back,
We'd only cry again
Say goodbye again.
The hours that were yours echoe like empty rooms
The toughts we used to share I now keep alone
I awoke last night and spoke to you not thinkin' you were gone
And it felt so strange to lie awake alone.
No regrets, no tears, goodbye
Don't want you back,
We'd only cry again
Say goodbye again.
--- Instrumental ---
Our friends have tried to turn my nights to day
Strange faces in your place can't keep the ghost away
Just beayond the darkest hour just behind the dawn
It feels so strange to leave my life alone.
No regrets, no tears, goodbye
Don't want you back,
We'd only cry again
Say goodbye again...
