[Intro]

I know sometimes it's hard

To put our pride aside

When all we should do is just say

I'm sorry

I'm sorry, baby



All alone in my room

I see visions of you

And I think to myself

What went wrong



As I sit here with my pain

Knowing I'm the one to blame

Had to play those silly games

Now there's no refrain, refrain



1 - I should of listened when you cried

I should of opened up my eyes

Too busy holding on to pride

I didn't hear you say goodbye



2 - So how do I say I'm sorry

When you're gone

How do I say that you were right

And baby I was wrong



I can feel that old black water

Commin' down on me strong

Cuz see, I had a real good something

And now I'm sitting here with nothing

I'm drowning, can somebody help me

Tell me how to say I'm sorry



So yesterday I sat and wrote these words

And tried not to cry

Guess it's true what they say

You never miss your water 'till your well runs dry



I miss your face, your faults, your laughter

Your tears, the way you smile (I miss your smile)

Can't nobody take your place

Damn girl, I really miss your sweet embrace



Repeat 1

Repeat 2

Repeat 2



[Ad lib]

If there's anyone you need to say I'm sorry to

(I'm sorry)

Say it out loud, ohh before they're no longer around

(I'm sorry, how do I say it)

Say sorry, I'm sorry

(I'm sorry, how do I say it, ooh)

Yeah, y'all better listen

(I'm sorry, how do I say it)

You've gotta make something right now

(I'm sorry, how do I say it, ooh)

This is what you need to do, now baby

This is what you need to do

Just say I'm sorr
