Straw Dogs - New Sunrise Lyrics

Supposed to happen the other way
So many stories about it
We're the ones who stray, the ones who should be doubted

I was feeling too good about myself
Too good about us
To notice I was losing your love, and you my trust
I was losing your love until you lost my trust

There's blame we can share
That is something I can bear

But I can't take the heartbreak
Of another sundown
Head in my hands, with a half drunken bottle of wine
So if you're calling to apologize
I think I know where the healing lies
Come on over and we'll call it a new sunrise
We'll start it over, and we'll call it a new sunrise

You deserve my forgiveness
Though I never earned your scorn
There isn't always a reason for mistakes we have born
I'm like a fire
You're like an angel who's torn
There isn't always a reason for mistakes we have born

But December to May
Is long enough away

And I can't take the heartbreak
Of another sundown
Head into night with only half left of everything
So if you're ready to repair our lives
We'll trade the guilt for some compromise
Come on over and we'll call it a new sunrise
We'll start it over, and we'll call it a new sunrise

We'll rise again
We'll rise again

Living near my phone
And I'm so tired of this alone

And I can't take the heartbreak
Of another sundown . . .
