Shame

作詞：Robbie Williams & Gary Barlow     作曲：Robbie Williams & Gary Barlow

Well there's three version of this story, mine, and yours and then the truth
And we can put it down to circumstance our childhood then our youth
Out of sentimental gain I wanted you to feel my pain
But it came back return to sender

I read your mind and tried to call
My tears could fill the Albert hall
Is this the sound of sweet surrender

What a shame we never listened
I told you through the television
And all that went away was the price we paid
People spend a life time this way
Oh what a shame

So I got busy throwing everybody underneath the bus
Oh, and with your poster 30 foot high at the back of Toy-R-Us
I wrote a letter in my mind but the words were so unkind
About a man I can't remember

I don't recall the reasons why
I must have meant them at the time
Is this the sound of sweet surrender

What a shame we never listened
I told you through the television
And all that went away was the price we paid
People spend a life time this way and that's how they stay
Oh what a shame

Words come easy when they're true
Words come easy when they're true

So I got busy throwing everybody underneath the bus
And with your poster 30 foot high at the back of Toy-R-Us
Now we can put it down to circumstance our childhood then our youth

What a shame we never listened
I told you through the television
And all that went away was the price we paid
People spend a lifetime this way
And that’s how they stay
People spend a lifetime this way
Oh what a shame
What a shame
Such a shame, what a shame
