Lyrics
- I’m sorry so sorry, what more can I say?
Never knew how much you meant to me till I went away
It’s my fault, all my fault, that we’re apart
I’d give anything if I could be back with you, sweetheart
Refrain
If I told a lie, if I made you cry
When I said goodbye I’m sorry
From the bottom of my heart, dear, I apologise
If I caused you pain, I know I’m to blame
Must have been insane, believe me
From the bottom of my heart, dear, I apologise
I realize I’ve been unfair to you
Please let me make amends
Don’t say that you forgot the love we knew
After all, we were more than friends
If I’ve made you blue, I’ve had heartaches too
Now I beg of you forgive me
From the bottom of my heart, dear, I apologise
- I loved you I lost you, oh, what I’ve gone through
Ever since the day I let you go I’ve been, oh, so blue
I loved you I still do, you must surmise
That I need you more than ever, dear, now I realize
