Lyrics
What's done is done
© 2012 Bruce Mills (SOCAN BMI)
Without you here with me
My living is too lonely
Silence and solitude
Got nothing to talk about
I can't remember
How it all began
God only knows
How it will end Chorus
No one is perfect
No one is always right
No one is always wrong
But people gotta take sides
It's more than black or white
There always shades of grey
No matter who's to blame
I need to say
No taking back all that I said
No way to change the wrong I did
It's all behind us now
No sense in holding on
To things that bring us down
What's done is done
Will you forgive me now - oh, oh, oh, oh
What's done is locked away
Deep down in my soul
It's killing me every day
Way too much pain
I need to look into your eyes
And tell you that I'm sorry
I'm not the man I used to be
Time is my witness
Chorus
No one is perfect
No one is always right
No one is always wrong
But people gotta take sides
It's more than black or white
There always shades of grey
No matter who's to blame
I need to say
No taking back all that I said
No way to change the wrong I did
It's all behind us now
No sense in holding on
To things that bring us down
What's done is done
Will you forgive me now?
Can we move on?
There's got to be a better way
Than all the hurting that we're living - every day
Somehow we need to make it right
Can we try - oh - can we try!
What's done is done
I think we need to start again
We've got to find ourselves a place
Where we belong
Where love is strong enough
Where everlasting mercy flows
Where love will grow enough
For us to forgive - what's done is done, yeah
