I'm Sorry

You waited there out in the rain

You held my jacket in your hand with my favorite smile

And I drove by, no, I couldn't stop

I caught your eye and then you knew I had given up

And if you call me up tonight

I will only say I'm sorry

And if you call me up tonight

I will only say I never meant to hurt you in this way

I lie awake with my eyes glued to the ceiling

and every desperate intention seems to hover overhead

I see you there with your head hung low

yeah, you're standing in my mind like you're etched in stone

And after all the bridges have collapsed

After all the miles you will one day put behind

You will see everything I meant

You will see I could never give you what you need

Well, maybe I am meant for this

lying in the bed alone

Maybe I am meant to suffer once you're gone
