Sorry-Grateful

Harry, you ever sorry you got married?

You're always sorry

You're always grateful

You're always wondering what might have been

Then she walks in

And still you're sorry

And still you're grateful

And still you wonder and still you doubt

And she goes out

Everything's different

Nothing's changed

Only maybe slightly

Rearranged

You're sorry-grateful

Regretful-happy

Why look for answers where none occur?

You always are what you always were

Which has nothing to do with

All to do with her

You're always sorry

You're always grateful

You hold her, thinking, "I'm not alone"

You're still alone

You don't live for her

You do live with her

You're scared she's starting to drift away—

And scared she'll stay

Good things get better

Bad get worse

Wait—I think I meant that in reverse

You're sorry-grateful

Regretful-happy

Why look for answers where none occur?

You'll always be what you always were

Which has nothing to do with

All to do with her

You'll always be what you always were

Which has nothing to do with

All to do with her

Nothing to do with

All to do with her
