Lyrics for High Days

I'm sorry if I failed you, for that I take the blame And I'm sorry if I snubbed you, I hang my head in shame But those people you call friends did you much more harm than good I should've tried much harder to reach out when i could When the children come to visit you, you break into a smile They fill your heart with sunshine, just for a little while You made a model airplane to teach them how to fly But when it crashed on the runway, you didn't ask the pilot why I got the lady from Baltimore stuck on my mind Bringing back those high days, when we would hang around You play your guitar, but you never ever finish the song Didn't matter than, I guess it doesn't matter now I got the lady from Baltimore stuck on my mind Bringing back those high days, when we would hang around You play your guitar, but you never ever finish the song Didn't matter than, and I guess it doesn't matter now And I guess it doesn't matter now I guess it doesn't matter now
