Hindsight

(Words by Lee MacDougall)

A little too much to drink, flickering Christmas lights

It was just another stupid argument, but I think about it all the time

I wanted just to pull her close, but I'm stubborn and I got too proud

A teardrop glanced her beauty spot and she disappeared into the crowd

And I swear I thought I saw her leaving with a monster by the bar

And I turned to the frosty window, as she stepped into his car

And I can't let that feeling go

I should have run but I just froze

I shouldn't have let her get in

Well hindsight is a wonderful thing

And the snowflakes danced around the blue and white flashing lights

The sound of a speeding ambulance, and a car lying on it's side

There was alcohol upon his breath and his voice began to crack

Well "sorry" is the hardest word I've heard, but it's never gonna bring her back

And I can't let that feeling go

How I stood frozen in the snow

I shouldn't have let her get in

Well hindsight is a wonderful thing

It's a wonderful thing

And I can't help but wish somehow

If I only knew then what I know now

I wouldn't have let her get in

Well hindsight is a wonderful thing

A wonderful thing
