As I sit in this coffee shop

Halfway through your note, I had to stop

Right near the end, the letter read

Maybe when I leave I'll lead a life less empty

Maybe we were waiting way too long to end this soap opera story

You'll accept just half of all these consequences

Maybe then that's when I'll finally say I'm sorry

Why didn't you, why didn't I, why couldn't we, I wonder why

She called me up the other day

And thank god I knew exactly what to say

You left me with this note and I quote from this note you wrote

Maybe when I leave I'll lead a life less empty

Maybe we were waiting way too long to end this soap opera story

You'll accept just half of all these consequences

Maybe then that's when I'll finally say I'm sorry

Why didn't you, why didn't I, why couldn't we, I wonder why

Why didn't you, why didn't I, why couldn't we, I wonder why

Why didn't you, why didn't I

Maybe when I leave I'll lead a life less empty

Maybe we were waiting way too long to end this soap opera story

You'll accept just half of all these consequences

Maybe then that's when I'll finally say I'm sorry

Whyd idn't you, why didn't I, why couldn't we, I wonder why

Maybe then that's when I'll finally say I'm sorry

Whyd didn't you, why didn't I
