I'm Sorry |
| Poetry Angels |
He
called you up To tell you the news And all you could say was “I’m sorry” He wasn’t yours And that’s the way You thought you wanted it You wanted the stage You wanted that new role You wanted the dream you left behind She called you up To tell you the news And all you could say was “I’m sorry” She’d been your friend Lived the dream You longed to live She was a musician You were an actress Can you act like You’re glad to hear the news? You’d all been friends But look who he chose The one whose dreams Were coming true Was there a chance? Couldn’t he see? You couldn’t live Two dreams at once She called you up To tell you the news And all you could say was “I’m sorry” She thought you’d like to hear That she’d finally found true love You were in tears Couldn’t they see? You’re whole life was killing you Your choices your fears Your loves and your hates They were battling inside of you You sat down and thought You cried and you cried You threw some punches at the wall Then suddenly it came to you Maybe you were meant to be alone Maybe they were meant to be together He called you up To tell you the news She’d broken it off He cried and he cried And all you could say was ”I’m sorry” He called you up To tell you the news He’d finally found his true love You think you know What he’s going to say He says it’s you You can’t believe the news You sit down and cry He tells you he loves you And all you can say is “I’m sorry” |
