My Apology (I'm Sorry)

i’ll stop to breathe
and then get back to finding what defines me
indecisive and afraid to take a chance
but that’s not news to you, you knew it first hand

you tried your best
and i tried to deny the pounding in my chest
i had my defenses, i fought and won the war
and lost the best thing i could’ve ever asked for

so i’ll write this for you and say nothing more

Chorus:
-
here’s my apology, i’m so sorry
for the secret i kept and all the nothing i said
you’ll finally hear it, dear, a little late, but sincere
i’ve loved you all along, and now your love is all gone

i blew our chance to be
i’m sorry
-


i built a time machine
took me a minute into the future, that’s the last thing i need
i wish that i could go back to five years ago
and say the things i couldn’t say and never let you go

but we both know that i can’t do that, so

chorus

i walked seventeen blocks down the street
to fix a mistake
it’s long, so i wrote it down onto this sheet
i’ll wait

chorus

i’m sorry
