|
He use to send her flowers |
|
To apologize, to apologize |
|
He used to say how sorry he was |
|
And flash his smile, he'd flash his smile |
|
And always she'd forgive him |
|
'Cause he'd mean it for a while |
|
And then he'd send her flowers |
|
To apologize, to apologize |
|
It wasn't that he meant her harm |
|
I realize, I realize |
|
It's just that life had taken him |
|
By surprise, by surprise |
|
At times he knew he'd failed her |
|
At times he really tried |
|
When times were worst he did his best |
|
To compromise, to comprise |
|
I told her once he'd break her heart |
|
But that wasn't true, wasn't true |
|
'Cause broken things can be repaired |
|
And held onto, held onto |
|
But her heart had been shattered |
|
The pieces lay inside |
|
In fragments much to tiny |
|
To recognize, to recognize |
|
I look now at the weariness |
|
That lies in his eyes, in his eyes |
|
And who an I to lay the blame |
|
Or criticize, or criticize |
|
He's sorry that he's living |
|
He's sorry he's alive |
|
He's sorry of the need |
|
To apologize, to apologize |
|
He's sorry of the need |
|
To apologize, to apologize |
