Lyrics
Everybody's got a thing or two that they wish they could undo
Even people like me and you have mistakes we've made, give or take a few
But there is nothing to be said or done to change the way things are
We got caught up in a moment and it went too far
Well we used to be a family- husband, son and wife
We used to have future that vanished in the night
But we forgot the difference between wrong and right
And I'll be saying I'm sorry for the rest of my life
There are hundred different things to say about why I had to walk away
Give it some time and soon it may, make a little sense some other day
But it's nobody's business, no matter if they think it is
Now we're splitting everything into hers and his
Well we used to be a family- husband, son and wife
We used to have future that vanished in the night
But we forgot the difference between wrong and right
And I'll be saying I'm sorry for the rest of my life
It's often said a life without regrets is never lived
But baby I'm not sorry, for the love I tried to give
There's no doubt that I would like to see a different end to the story of you and me
But certain things were never meant to be, no matter how much you wish it was reality
We could blame it on the circumstances or even blame it on our youth
Maybe in the future we could learn to tell the truth
Well we used to be a family- husband, son and wife
We used to have future that vanished in the night
But we forgot the difference between wrong and right
And I'll be saying I'm sorry for the rest of my life
