Just two words
Saw she would ask of me
And I could have
World known holds for me
Of love and tender care
Not the pain and the sorrow
That will be mine tomorrow
But I just can't seem to say it
I'm sorry
I know exactly what I should do
Admit I'm wrong
It wouldn't take long and she'd forgive me
And I know exactly what I ought to say
But I'm not built that way
Wish that I could say
I'm sorry
I'm a man
Least that's what I'll like to think
A stubborn man
Who now is standing on the brink
Of hate and despair and
I care and I'm sorry
And I ought to tell her
But I just can't seem to say it
I'm sorry
I know exactly what
I should do
But I'm a fool
I guess I'll do the things that fools do
I'll stand and watch my dreams
Go down the drain
In my stubborn way
And as they sink I'll say
I'm sorry
I'm sorry
