Your face, got all bunched up I could sense the tension in the air, You're pretty good at pretending but there's no way of fooling me You said, how it was perfect I tried to believe your claim, I knew what you wanted was a receipt for an exchange I tried, please forgive me! For the stupid present that I gave you... I knew, what you wanted How could I have been so stupid? What was I thinking when I picked it off the shelf? If I could, (if you could!) only try again But I suppose that it's too late, next year is so far away you know you can't wait till then I tried, please forgive me! For the stupid present that I gave you... I had good intentions had I only paid attention to the request you made the other night What was I thinking I must have been drinking when I picked it off the shelf? I tried, please forgive me! For the stupid present that I gave you...
