Too Hard to Say I’m Sorry

[Verse 1]
Just two words were all that she would ask of me
And I could have the world and all it 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

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 2]
I'm a man, at least that's what I like to think
A stubborn man, who now is standing on the brink
Of pain
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
[Chorus]
I know exactly what I should do
But I'm a fool I guess I'll do
The thing 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
