Lyrics
Sorry
(written by F Naude / D Campbell)
It?s been said in many ways ? many times before ? I know
In every heart - in every tongue and in every place
And oh ? in the middle of the day or night
Oh ? why wait so long to make it right
I?m sorry for the things I?ve said to you - It wasn?t true
How can I make up for the things I?ve done - When I was wrong
Why is it when we love - Sorry is the hardest thing to say?
It?s been whispered for a thousand years - Many times with tears - I know
Roses and rings sometimes say the things that we can?t say
Oh - Nothing I can buy can say
Oh - The things that I must say today
Chorus
Can you hear me - In my awkward stumbling way?
Can you hear me - when I say?
Chorus
I?m sorry for the things I?ve said to you - It wasn?t true
How can I make up for the things I?ve done - When I was wrong
Why is it when we love - Sorry is the hardest thing to say?
