HIGH REGRETS
Lyrics by Peter Merz Music by Mark E. Ellis
1.
In the moonlight
I see stolen memories.
In the neon-night
I see traces of forgeries.
And though I might win my bets
I’ve got high regrets.
Chorus:
There’s no turning back
When the truth confronts your soul.
And all your earnings
Leave you with nothing to show.
Could be filthy rich and yet
Still have high regrets.
2.
Too many times
I’ve taken the easy way,
Only to find
That there’s hell to pay.
And I’m a dirty, filthy wretch
With high regrets
Chorus
Bridge
Something’s wrong here
The jigsaw’s missing a piece.
No beginning, no ending,
And Lord knows there’s no relief.
It’s somewhat obscure
All this talk of belief.
Could be as good as it gets
Still there’s high regrets.
3.
I could believe
In some Higher Power.
I could conceive it
Here in this midnight hour,
If just once I could forget
I’ve got high regrets.
Chorus
