Lyrics

Featuring the amazing Katie Pederson on vocals!

(Josh)
The day that we met
I'll never forget
I knew from the moment she spoke
The she, was destined to be
My favorite regret

And all through the years
The joy and the tears
We shared like as greatest of friends
But she, was destined to be
My favorite regret
	
	Well, each moment we've spent
	I've been almost content
	Just to talk to her all through the night

	But a part of me mourns
	What will never be born
	She's forever my favorite regret

(Katie)
He's gentle and kind
And totally blind
To not see the life we could lead
And he, is destined to be
My favorite regret

In bad times and good
I've steadfastly stood
My passion just waits to be freed
But he, is destined to be
My favorite regret

	(Josh & Katie)
	Well, I've got more to give
	But I'm happy to live
	In the shadow, of what could’ve been

	But a part of me yearns 
	Like an ember, it burns
	Forever, my favorite regret


One day, when the stars fade
Will the echoes of my love
Arrive to you above
And wake you up at last


I'll take what I've got
Put the rest in a box
Addressed to the stars in the sky
And soon, up there with the moon
My favorite regret
Forever my favorite regret
