I hear she got a new last name last week
Nobody I can blame but me
One too many nights, one too many lonely nights was all that she could take
While I was runnin around, she was walking away, my oh my

Repetitive regret is that I left
The girl I can't forget go, my oh my
Repetitive regret is that I bet
She ain't alone, and I'm alone

Never been so alone in so long
Oh now I know I ain't so strong
One too many queens, One too many selfish dreams were taking me away
From all I love, now all I can say

Repetitive regret is that I left
The girl I can't forget go, my oh my
Repetitive regret is that I bet
She ain't alone, and I'm alone

One too many nights, one too many lonely nights was all that she could take
While I was runnin around she was walking away, my oh my

Repetitive regret is that I left
The girl I can't forget go, my oh my
Repetitive regret is that I bet
She ain't alone, and I'm alone

My repetitive regret
My repe-e-titive regret
My repet-t-t-titive regret
Is that I let
My repetitive regret
My repe-e-titive regret
My repet-t-t-titive regret
I let her go
My repetitive regret
My repe-e-titive regret
My repet-t-t-titive regret
