 Carrie:
 Piercing words,  eyes are red
 Watched your taillights  in the rain
 Empty heart  filled with regret
 I know we  were both to blame
 And i'm not sorry  that it's over
 But for the way  we let it end
 So I said all  I had to say
 In letters that  I threw away
 And you  should know, please believe  me
 I've picked up  the phone a thousand times
 And tried  to dial your number, but it's been  so long
 It's never easy,  it's like tryin'  to spin the world  the other  way
 What can I  say?
 Guy:
 How did it  come to this?
 Guy and Carrie:
 I think about  you all the time
 It's no excuse,  but I wish
 That I never  made you cry
 I'm not sorry  that it's over
 But for the way  we let it end
 I couldn't find  the words to say
 And you  should know, please  believe me
 I've picked up  the phone a thousand times
 And tried  to dial your number, but it's been  so long
 It's never easy,  it's like tryin'  to spin the world  the other  way
 Carrie: So What can I say?
 Guy: (What can I say?)
 Carrie: What can I say?
 Guy: (What can I say?)
 Guy: I hate to  think all you  had of me
 Carrie:(I said all  I had to say)
 Guy: Is a memory  I left you,  space between
 what was meant  to be
 Carrie:(In letters that  I threw away)
 Guy: And the  mess that it turned  into
 And you  should know, please  believe me
 I've picked up  the phone a thousand times
 And tried  to dial your number!!!
 But it's been so  long
 It's never easy,  it's like tryin'  to spin the world  the other  way
 Guy: It's like trying  to spin the world  the other  way!
 What can I  say?
 What can  i say?

Piercing wo[Am]rds, eyes are r[F]ed
Watched your ta[C]illights in the r[G]ain
Empty h[Am]eart filled with r[F]egret

So I said al[F]l I had to sa[Am]y
In letters th[F]at I threw awa[Am]y   [G]

And you[C] should know, please [G]believe me
I've picked [Am]up the phone a thousand times
And tr[F]ied to dial your number, but it's be[C]en so long
It's never [G]easy, it's like t[Am]ryin' to spin the w[C]orld the othe[F]r wa[G]y
What can [C]I say?  [G]

But for the w[C]ay we let it e[G]nd
I couldn't fi[F]nd the words to sa[Am]y   [G]     [F]       [G]

And y[C]ou should know, pleas[G]e believe me
