The singer sounds sort of like Mark Knophler of Dire Straits but I can't be sure. And because I'm working, I haven't been able to write down more of the song but this is the chorus that I've been able to get:
Couldn't stand to face the music
So many reasons why
So I'll send you postcards
From Paraguay. From Paraguay.
This comes at the end of the song.
Sorry that I haven't been able to capture more of the lyrics but any help would be appreciated.
Thank you.

You were correct! The singer of the song you are looking for is Mark Knophler. The song's title is Postcards From Paraguay and was released in 2004. Here are the full lyrics...
one thing was leading to the next
i bit off more than i could chew
i had the power to sign the cheques
it wasn't difficult to do
i couldn't stay and face the music
so many reasons why
i won't be sending postcards
from paraguay
i robbed a bank full of dinero
a great big mountain of dough
so it was goodbye companero
and cheerio
i couldn't stay and face the music
so many reasons why
i won't be sending postcards
from paraguay
i never meant to be a cheater
but there was blood on the wall
i had to steal from peter
to pay what i owed to paul
i couldn't stay and face the music
so many reasons why
i won't be sending postcards
from paraguay
