It seems like such a long time ago, but I don't know if I'm ever gonna let her go
Well, I remember the first time that I met her, I knew she was the one
There couldn't be anybody better
Well, I was lost when I looked in her eyes
I didn't even have a chance, I didn't, I was mesmerized
Well those eyes, those eyes, they made me realize...
Sorry, Sorry... Well, I did not want it to be
Sorry, Sorry... I could not see
Sorry, Sorry... Well Lord, how could this be?
Sorry, Sorry... Well, it's raining down on me
Well, I know it sounds crazy to say
But in everything I do, I think about that day
Last time I talked to her was on the telephone
She said "I know it's been a while, but I don't feel like being alone"
I slammed down the phone on the last thing I'd hear her say
Now it's getting harder to live with it every day
And I pray, I pray that you can hear me say
Sorry, Sorry... I could not see
Sorry, Sorry... But it don't seem fair to me
Sorry, Sorry... Lord, how could this be?
Sorry, Sorry... It's raining right down on me
I'M SORRY
Not a day goes by when I do not sit and wonder why this had to be
It don't seem fair to me
No, no, no, no. how could this be?
The more I wish and pray, the more it seems I waste away
But it would mean oh so much if I could just reach out and our hands would touch
And if I'd just go back again I know it'd all be different, have a happy end
I know exactly right where I'd start
I'd send her a letter straight from my heart
It doesn't seem fair, why can't I forgive?
She was oh so young, she didn't even have a chance to live
And it's oh so hard to forgive
Sometimes people think I don't know what to say because I'm looking out in space
But inside I'm praying
I pray, I pray, I pray, pray, pray
and then I think about the day she died
About that night and in the morning I'd cry cry cry
And I cried, I cried just as hard as I could
Sorry... Well, I did not want it to be
Sorry... Well, it don't seem fair to me
Sorry... Lord, how could this be?
Sorry... She died, but it's k**ing me
When will it come that time when it'll be my day?
And I wonder what I'll see and what you'll think and if I'll have the courage to stay
When I last was seen, thinkin' out of my head, it won't do it for me
I'll start by looking her straight in the eye
And tell her that I'm Sorry
