lyrics

Sorry to say I don't like your taste in music
All your favourite songs you know I hate them
Can't relate to all the words they say
I don't want to waste my life away
singing the same old words over again

And I know you've got better things to do than hear my words
but won't you listen to the sound of my voice getting close
to hitting all the right notes that were written on my heart
before it broke

We were standing on a bridge that day
when it went up in flames
The fire closed in on me
I saw you running away
I met you the next day
You asked if I was okay

Do I look okay?

We were standing on a bridge that day
when it went up in flames
The fire closed in on me
I saw you running away
I met you the next day
You asked if I was okay

Do I look okay?
Is that the best you can say?
We were okay yesterday
now there's an ocean between
these fading memories
and any future I see

And so I know you've got better things to do than hear my words
but won't you listen to the sound of my voice getting close
to hitting all the right notes that were written on my heart
before we broke

Sorry to say I don't like your taste in music
All your favourite songs you know I hate them
I relate to every word they say
I can't bear to hear them telling me
I loved you too but not today
