Lyrics Bonnie Raitt

Bonnie Raitt

Undone

There's a sword at the tip of my tongue

That shows no mercy on the latest one

I was wrong with all my might

I took you out in one last round tonight

Now there's no more shouting and no more tears

Just the fatal words ringing in our ears

And in the silence it's crystal clear

There's no undoing what has happened here

We've come undone, we've come undone

Battle waged and nothing won

Oh, what have I done? The blood has run

Some things can't be undone

We hurt the ones we love the most

A thousand memories go up in smoke

And in the morning when the ashes fall

There'll be no need for any words at all

We've come undone, we've come undone

Battle waged and nothing won

Oh, what have I done? The blood has run

Some things can't be undone

But there's no joy in victory

Oh, when it comes at your defeat

We've come undone

Lord, what have I done?

Some things can't be undone

Oh, some things can't be undone
