This is purely a song from his heart, I love it! I just love relating to all the lines and playing it on the piano, it's so bitter with his strong emotion towards his former band Take That. Quite a few of his songs off 'The Ego Has Landed' are of that sense.
The last chorus isn't right. It should be:
"No regrets, they don´t work
No regrets now, they only hurt
(We´ve been told you stay up late)
Write me a love song,
(You´re far too short to carry weight)
drop me a line
(Return the videos they´re late)
Suppose it´s just a point of view
But they tell me I´m doing fine"
I love how at the end the mood changes and he speaks his feelings and finishes on the note "dead."
"Everything I wanted to be, every time I walked away
Every time you told me "Leave" I just wanted to stay
Every time you looked at me and every time you smiled
I felt so vacant you treat me like a child
I loved the way we used to laugh
I loved the way we used to smile
Often I sit down and think of you for a while
Then it passes me by and I think of someone else instead
I guess the love we once had is officially
Dead. "
