I don't know why I made you cry
I'm sorry, sweetheart, and yet
Although you shouldn't be so lenient with me
I'll try to forgive and forget

But tell me
What can I say, dear, after I say I'm sorry?
What can I do to prove it to you, I'm sorry?
I didn't mean to ever be mean to you, you, you, you
If I didn't care I wouldn't feel like I do, do, do, do
I was all wrong but right or wrong I don't blame you
Why should I take somebody like you and shame you
I know that I made you cry, and I'm so sorry, dear
But what can I say, dear, after I say I'm sorry?

I know that I made you cry, and I'm so sorry, dear
But what can I say, dear, after I say I'm sorry?
