Sorry For Leaving You
Mid-tempo alt-rock with female vocals, crunchy guitars driving the verses and a steady drum groove with tight eighth-note hats. Choruses bloom into layered harmonies over a cleaner guitar counter-melody, bass locking in simple but heavy. Subtle reverb on the vocal for space, final section crashes back in with the distorted riff and a decisive snare hit., steady, clean, electric, female vocals

Lyrics
Verse 1
You were on the front porch
Keys on the table
I left in a hurry
Said I'd call when I'm stable
Half-packed boxes
Coffee gone cold
Your sweater in my backseat
Still smells like hope
Pre-Chorus
Every mile I put between us
Felt like lying to your face
I hear your name in the engine
Can’t outrun that ache
Chorus
Sorry for leaving you
And I have to say that I'm sorry
For leaving you
And I have to say that I'm sorry
For leaving you
And I have to say that I'm sorry
For leaving you
And I have to say that I'm sorry (so sorry)
Verse 2
Saw your mother last week
At the old main station
She asked how you're doing
I changed the conversation
Kept my sunglasses on
Though we were indoors
'Cause I still see your shadow
In every open door
Chorus
Sorry for leaving you
And I have to say that I'm sorry
For leaving you
And I have to say that I'm sorry
For leaving you
And I have to say that I'm sorry
For leaving you
And I have to say that I'm sorry (so sorry)
Bridge
If I turn this car around
Would you even want me back?
Or am I just a late confession
On a burned-out track?
I replay that doorway silence
Every night
The same
You were reaching out to hold me
I was reaching for escape
Chorus
Sorry for leaving you
And I have to say that I'm sorry
For leaving you
And I have to say that I'm sorry
For leaving you
And I have to say that I'm sorry
For leaving you
And I have to say that I'm sorry (so sorry)
Outro
[Distorted guitar riff builds
Snare hits accent each phrase]
Sorry for leaving you
(yeah, I'm sorry)
