Buffy Sainte-Marie
From The Bottom Of My Heart
Say I’m sorry through your tears
Say I love you while you cry
Say I’m not no good without me anyhow
Say you don’t know how you’ll live
If I can’t find it to forgive
But the bottom of my heart is empty now
Clench your fists and stomp the ground
Cuss me out and knock me down
Throw a tantrum, salt and sugar if you will
Hang your head and heave a sigh
But don’t pretend you don’t know why
‘Cause from the bottom of my heart I’ve had my fill
I’ve looked the other way and always welcomed you
Forgiven you for every time you’ve wronged
My forgiveness never seems to help you
Maybe you’ll be stronger on your own
Say your sins arе in the past
Say you’ve seen the light at last
Tеll me please, please to give you one more try
Say you care, you really do
But babe I’ve had enough of you
And from the bottom of my heart I say goodbye
[instrumental]
Oh, I’ve looked the other way and always welcomed you
Forgiven you for every time you’ve wronged
My forgiveness never seems to help you
Oh, maybe you’ll be stronger on your own
Say your sins are in the past
Say you’ve seen the light at last
Tell me please, please to give you one more try
Say you care, you really do
But babe I’ve had enough of you
And from the bottom of my heart I say goodbye
