lyrics

If I apologize, will you forgive?
If I say I'm sorry for the way that I've lived
Think of the good times when our love was new
I'm saying I'm sorry, I apologize to you

If I apologize, can we go on?
Please don't believe that our love is all gone
We had so much together, forgive me my sin
I'm saying I'm sorry, I need you back again

I know that I'm guilty, I'll take all the blame
And I'll try to do better, would you do the same?

If I should promise, will you agree?
That we'll stay together and you'll never leave
Let's try to forget all the pain we've been through
I'm saying I'm sorry, I apologize to you

I loved you much more than I ever knew
I'm saying I'm sorry, I apologize to you
