I'm sorry for the things I've done
For all the things I've said
I don't want to fight with you
I want to be your friend, instead

Forgive me, please, for what has passed
For all the things that I've done wrong
I never meant to hurt you so
Please, can't we try to get along?

I feel so bad, I want to cry
But what are tears that soon will dry?
Like all the stars up in the sky
That hide behind the clouds

A pool of tears cannot erase
All of the memories in your mind
For what it's worth, I'm sorry
And I hope you'll see in time

I'm sorry for the pain I've caused
And not respecting private fears
I'm sorry, love, I really am
For bringing on the tears
