I'm Sorry

Silk

I know sometimes it's hard (mmm…)
To put our pride aside
When all we should do is just say (yeah, mmm)
I'm sorry (yeah, mmm)
I'm sorry, baby (mmm, mmm)

All alone in my room
I see visions of you
And I think to myself
What went wrong (what went wrong)
As I sit here with my pain
Knowing I'm the one to blame
Had to play those silly games
Now there's no refrain, refrain

I shoulda listened when you cried
I shoulda opened up my eyes
Too busy holding on to pride
I didn't hear you say goodbye

So how do I say (I'm) I'm sorry (sorry)
When you're gone
How do I say that you were right
And baby, I was wrong (I was wrong)

I can feel that old black water
Comin' down on me strong
Cuz see, I had a real good something
And now I'm sitting here with nothing
I'm drowning, can somebody help me
Tell me how to say (tell me how to say-ey) 
I'm sorry (ooh…I'm sorry)

So yesterday I sat and wrote these words
And tried not to cry
Guess it's true what they say
You never miss your water 'till your well runs dry
I miss your face (oh…) your faults, your laughter
Your tears, the way you smile (I miss your smile)
Can't nobody take your place
Damn, girl, I really miss your sweet embrace

I shoulda listened when you cried
I shoulda opened up my eyes
Too busy holding on to pride
I didn't hear you say goodbye…

How do I say I'm sorry (I'm sorry)
When you're gone
How do I say that you were right (you were right)
And baby, I was wrong (I was wrong, so wrong)

I can feel that old black water
Comin' down on me strong
Cuz see, I had a real good something
And now I'm sitting here with nothing
I'm drowning, can somebody help me
Tell me how to say (oh, oh)

How do I say I'm sorry (I'm so…rry, hey, yeah)
When you're gone
How do I say that you were right
And baby, I was wrong (so wrong, so wrong, whoa, oh, oh)

I can feel that old black water
Comin' down on me strong (down on me strong)
Cuz see, I had a real good something
And now I'm sitting here with nothing (oh)
I'm drowning (I'm drowning) help me sing it, y'all
Tell me how to say [come on, show, show me] (show me) 
I'm sorry (hey, yeah, yeah…)

If there's anyone you need to say I'm sorry to
(I'm sorry)
Say it out loud, ooh, before they're no longer around, hey…
(I'm sorry, how do I say it)
Sorry, I'm sorry
(I'm sorry, how do I say it, ooh)
Oh, oh, oh, oh, yeah, y'all better listen
(I'm sorry, how do I say it)
If you've gotta know, oh
If you've got a blame, some make right now
(I'm sorry, how do I say it, ooh)
This is what you need to do now, babe, yeah
This is what you need to do
Just say I'm sorry [oh…]
(How do I say it)

(I'm sorry, how do I say it, ooh)
Oh…so sorry
Get on your knees if you have to
(I'm sorry, how do I say it) [sorry]
You gotta make 'em believe it
You gotta make 'em come see it, hey, yeah
Just-a say that you were, oh [say…]
(How do I say it, ooh)
Cuz that's what I'm doing right now, hey [yeah…]
Oh, I hope you can here me up there, oh, hey
(I'm sorry, how do I say it)
I hope you can hear me up there, ooh, ooh, yeah
(I'm sorry, how do I say it, ooh)
From the bottom of my heart
To the depths of my soul
My body and mind

(I'm sorry)
Reaching out to you
