Lyrics
- You smiled when we parted
It hurt me somehow
I thought there was nothing worthwhile
The tables are turning
And you’re crying now
While I am just learning to smile
Chorus:
Who’s sorry now? Who’s sorry now?
Whose heart is aching for breaking each vow?
Who’s sad and blue? Who’s crying, too?
Just like I cried over you
Right to the end, just like a friend
I tried to warn you somehow
You had your way, now you must pay
I’m glad that you’re sorry now
- Although I forgive you
I cannot forget
How you shattered all my ideals
You smiled when I told you
that you would regret
And now you know just how it feels
