Best Wishes

My dearest Eliza, I'm so sorry I hurt you
I'm sorry if my rough edges, if they cut you
You know it's been a long time
And I probably had too much red wine
But seeing you at the reunion felt like a head-on collision
I guess it's the folly of youth, not knowing what to hold on to
It becomes the bane of the old, not being able to let go
I tried and I just can't seem to let this one go
I know in the grand scheme of things
This don't mean much if anything
But it never hurts worse
Than when a mistake becomes a curse
And it keeps you up at night
And you just want to close your eyes
I keep thinking what if, like a record with a skip
It keeps playing over and over again and I just can't get beyond it
You see I'm stuck in the past, some feather in the sap
The world's moved on around me and it's left me a relic
Maybe if I saw you again, maybe then I'd let you in
On just how I'm feeling, but really, who am I kidding?
If I saw you I'd just smile and tell you best wishes
I know in the grand scheme of things
This don't mean much if anything
But it never hurts worse
Than when a mistake becomes a curse
And it keeps you up at night
And you just want to close your eyes
You just want to fall asleep
You just want to put this to bed
You just want to give it a rest
You just want to stop asking why
You just want to stop asking why
You just want to stop asking why
I just want to stop asking why
