Words Of Apology

lyrics

WORDS OF APOLOGY

My words of apology
cannot re-instill
the trust and security
my actions have killed
It's all gone and what's more
Lost deep in the rough
I can never restore
Your faith in my love

There ain’t no tall building’s gonna ever scrape the sky
ain’t no leap of faith gonna teach you to fly
there ain’t no redemption comin’ down from above
I can’t restore your faith in my love


You burn my letters in effigy
and you never waver
you still feel so real to me
I know nobody braver
What’s the point anymore 
in pretending I'm tough?
When I can never restore
Your faith in my love


There ain’t no tall building’s gonna ever scrape the sky
ain’t no leap of faith gonna teach you to fly
there ain’t no redemption comin’ down from above
I can’t restore your faith in my love


My words of apology
are not getting through
you stopped believing in me
the way that I still do in you
Now I’d pay whatever the cost
I’d give up all of my stuff
if I could get back what I lost
when you lost your faith in my love

There ain’t no tall building’s gonna ever scrape the sky
ain’t no leap of faith gonna teach you to fly
there ain’t no redemption comin’ down from above
I can’t restore your faith in my love
I can never restore your faith in my love
