The Ones We Couldn't Be Lyrics - Bonnie Raitt

It's hard to say now who left first 

It used to seem so clear 

You and I were tangled from the start 

Somehow the scales just fell away 

And I'm left standing here 

Blown open in the hole that was my part 

 

I wrap the dark around me 

There's no solace here tonight 

There's just wishing and regret for company 

My glass is raised for all the ways 

We tried to get it right 

And I'm sorry for the ones we couldn't be 

I'm so sorry for the ones we couldn't be

Looking through these photographs 

Searching for a clue 

How you and I got tangled from the start 

Not even blood could forge a bond 

Enough to get us through 

Or stem the tides that pulled us far apart 

 

I'm sorry for the ways I couldn't give you 

What you needed 

For all the ways I strung us both along 

They say it goes both ways and I suppose 

I could concede it 

Seems to matter more, now that you're gone 

 

And though it seems much kinder 

Just to leave some things unsaid 

Like all the ways I tore myself apart 

If you really want forgiveness, better 

Try the truth instead 

It may not be enough, but it's a start

I wrap the dark around me 

There's no solace here tonight 

There's just wishing and regret for company 

My glass is raised for all the ways 

We tried to get it right 

And I'm sorry for the ones we couldn't be 

I'm so sorry for the ones 

Sorry for the ones 

I'm so sorry for the one I couldn't be
