Mea Culpa Lyrics - Mike & The Mechanics

You can't forgive and you won't forget 

We did something that we both regret 

Mea culpa 

I held my breath while you took your time 

To tell the world what's yours is mine 

Mea culpa 

You don't need me 

You don't need anyone at all 

You've got what you desired 

You lit the fire and watched the rise and fall 

And in your eyes I could see my face 

A non believer in a state of grace 

Mea culpa, mea culpa 

I see no reason for your complaint 

You got the sinner and not the saint 

Mea culpa

I can't say much, I can't say anything at all 

You tell the story well then you retire to watch the rise and fall 

Mea culpa 

You never know what's in your heart 

Until you look 

You never know what's in your heart 

Until you look 

Take a look 

Just take a look 

Just take a look 

Just take a look 

Mea culpa 

Mea culpa 

Mea culpa 

You don't need me 

You don't need anyone at all 

You've got what you desired 

You lit the fire and watched the rise and fall

Mea culpa 

You never know what's in your heart 

Until you look 

You never know what's in your heart 

Until you look 

Take a look 

Just take a look 

Just take a look 

Just take a look 

Mea culpa 

You can't forgive me, you won't forget me 

Mea culpa 

Should've known from the start 

What's goin' on inside your heart 

Mea culpa 

Mea culpa 

Take a look 

Mea culpa 

I don't need you, I don't need anyone at all
