Regret
Vitamin X Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Recall yesterday, feelings of regret
But it's too late, for you to say
The things you should have said...

NO USE FOR YOU TO HAVE
Feelings of regret
BETTER LIVE TODAY
And make a new start

Throw away that burden
That rests upon your mind
Learn from your mistakes




And leave the past behind!!
NO REGRET, NO REGRET
