Disculparse

McEvoy Eleanor

Apologise

He use to send her flowers
To apologise, to apologise
He used to say how sorry he was
And flash his smile, he'd flash his smile
And always she'd forgive him
'Cause he'd mean it for a while
And then he'd send her flowers
To apologise, to apologise

It wasn't that he meant her harm
I realise, I realise
It's just that life had taken him
By surprise, by surprise
At times he knew he'd failed her
At times he really tried
When times were worst he did his best
To compromise, to comprise

I told her once he'd break her heart
But that wasn't true, wasn't true
'Cause broken things can be repaired
And held onto, held onto
But her heart had been shattered
The pieces lay inside
In fragments much TOO tiny
To recognise, to recognise

I look now at the weariness
That lies in his eyes, in his eyes
And who AM I to lay the blame
Or criticize, or criticize
He's sorry that he's living
He's sorry he's alive
He's sorry of the need
To apologise, to apologise

He's sorry of the need
To apologise, to apologise

Disculparse

Solía enviarle flores
Para disculparse, para disculparse
Solía decir cuánto lo lamentaba
Y mostrar su sonrisa, él mostraría su sonrisa
Y siempre ella lo perdonaba
Porque él lo sentía por un tiempo
Y luego le enviaba flores
Para disculparse, para disculparse

No es que quisiera hacerle daño
Lo comprendo, lo comprendo
Es solo que la vida lo tomó
Por sorpresa, por sorpresa
A veces sabía que le fallaba
A veces realmente lo intentaba
Cuando las cosas estaban peor, hacía su mejor esfuerzo
Para comprometerse, para componer

Le dije una vez que le rompería el corazón
Pero eso no era cierto, no era cierto
Porque las cosas rotas pueden repararse
Y aferrarse, aferrarse
Pero su corazón había sido destrozado
Los pedazos yacían adentro
En fragmentos DEMASIADO pequeños
Para reconocer, para reconocer

Ahora veo el cansancio
Que yace en sus ojos, en sus ojos
Y ¿quién SOY YO para echar la culpa
O criticar, o criticar
Él lamenta estar vivo
Lamenta estar vivo
Lamenta la necesidad
De disculparse, de disculparse

Lamenta la necesidad
De disculparse, de disculparse
