I'm alone, sitting with my empty 
glass
My four walls follow me through my 
past
I was on a Paris train.  I emerged 
in London rain
and you were waiting there, swimming
 through apologies

CHORUS
A5         B5                G5 
I remember searching for the 
          D5
perfect words

A5           B5                   
I was hoping you might change your
 G5
 mind

A5           B5              G5 
I remember a soldier sleeping 
        D5
next to me

You wore white, smiling as you took 
my hand
and so we moved, we spoke of 
wintertime in France
Minutes passed with shallow words.  
Years have passed and still the hurt
I can see you now, smiling as you 
pulled away.

CHORUS
I remember the letter wrinkled in my
 hand
"I'll love you always" filled my 
eyes
I remember the night we walked along
 the Seine
Riding on the Metro

CHORUS
I remember a feeling coming over me
The soldier turned and walked away
I remember hating you for loving me
Riding on the Metro

I'm alone, sitting with a broken 
glass
My four walls follow me through my 
past
I was on a Paris train.  I emerged 
in London rain
and you were waiting there, swimming
 through apologies
(sorry)
