The Regrettes – Dress Up lyrics
[Verse 1]
You wanna go but think you should stay here
Can't touch my toes but I can be your savior
I know that it's been said before
But I'll say it again, louder, for sure
I made a promise, I might've messed up
I said I'd be there, but I played dress up
I know if you'll just hold my hand
Then you'll understand
Yeah, you'll understand

[Chorus]
Don't think I don't wanna hear your voice
(Your voice, your, your voice)
'Cause all I wanted was your voice
But my head was clogged and my toes were numb
I got a million excuses sitting under my thumb
And we know, oh, oh, oh
You wanna let go

[Post-Chorus]
(Hey, hey, hey, hey)
(Hey, hey, hey, hey)

[Verse 2]
I know you're hurtin', you need a Band-Aid
You got a cut and I was the blade
I wanna be the thing you need
But I'm just a little stuck in my sorry routine
Remember when we would spend all night
On the kitchen floor, laughin' 'bout some fight?
I wish that I could drink your tea
But some people change when they move to the valley

[Chorus]
Don't think I don't wanna hear your voice
(Your voice, your, your voice)
'Cause all I wanted was your voice
But my head was clogged and my toes were numb
I got a million excuses on the tip of my tongue
And we know, oh, oh, oh
You wanna let go

[Post-Chorus]
(Hey, hey, hey, hey)
(Hey, hey, hey, hey)
(Hey, hey, hey, hey)
(Hey, hey, hey, hey)

[Bridge]
I love you, I love you, I love you and I'm sorry
And I love you, I love you, I love you and I'm sorry
And I'm trying, I'm trying, I'm trying but I'm lying
And I love you, I love you
I love you, I'm so sorry

[Chorus]
Don't think I don't wanna hear your voice
(Your voice, your, your voice)
'Cause all I wanted was your voice
But my head was clogged and my toes were numb
I've got a million excuses, waiting for the run
And we know
Yeah, we know
You wanna let go
