No Regrets

Questo è uno dei brano di Robbie Williams che più amo. Per la rabbia che esprime; rabbia che è fondamentalmente una maschera, una copertura della sofferenza che in realtà si cela dietro le sue parole. E' forse la canzone più bella che abbia mai scritto:
Tell me a story
Where we all change
And we'd live our lives together
And not enstranged
I didn't lose my mind
it was Mine to give away
Couldn't stay to watch me cry
You didn't have the time
So I softly slip away...
No regrets
they don't work
No regrets
hey only hurt
Sing me a love song
Drop me a line
Suppose it's just a point of view
But they tell me I'm doing fine
I know from the outside
We looked good for eachother
Felt things were going wrong When
you didn't like my mother
I don't want to hate
but that's All you've left me with
A bitter aftertaste and a fantasy
of How we all could live
No regrets
they don't work
No regrets
they only hurt
(We've been told you stay up late)
I know they're still talking
(You're far too short to carry weight)
The demons in your head
(Return the videos they're late)
If I could just stop hating you
(Goodbye)
I'd feel sorry for us instead
Remember the photographs
(insane)
The ones where we all laugh
(so lame)
We were having the time of our lives
Well thank you
it was a real blast
Everything I wanted to be
every Time I walked away
Everytime you told me to leave
I just wanted to stay
Every time you looked at me
and Everytime you smiled
I felt so vacant
you treat me like a child
I loved the way we used to laugh
I loved the way we used to smile
Often I sit down
and think of you For a while
Then it passes by me
and I think of Someone else instead
I guess the love we once had is Officially
dead
