Sorry

(album: Smoke Rings In The Dark - 1999)

Ooh ooh ooh ooh sorry, ooh ooh ooh ooh sorry

Well I came home from work in the middle of the day
Two hours early, but a little too late
She was coming down the stairs, looking mighty grand
With a big brown suitcase in her hand

I said, "What's going on, baby, what's the deal"
She said, "I just don't feel like I used to feel"
With the devil's own smile right out of the blue
She said, "I done went and found myself somebody new"
She said,

Sorry it didn't work out
Sorry, guess I'll see you around
She ruined my life, left me broken hearted
And all she had to say was, "Sorry"

Well, I laid awake crying for many a night
I just couldn't seem to get her off my mind
I went to her, got down on my knees
Said, "Baby, won't ya please come back to me"
She said,

Sorry it didn't work out
Sorry, guess I'll see you around
She ruined my life, left me broken hearted
And all she had to say was, "Sorry"

Well, time went by and my poor heart healed
I found me a woman who's love is real
Man she's a looker, the apple of my eye
And every head turns when she walks by

Well, we ran into my old flame the other day
It blew my mind what she had to say
She said, "Hello, baby, well how have you been
I was hoping maybe we could get together again"
And I said,

Sorry it didn't work out
Sorry, guess I'll see you around
You ruined my life and left me broken hearted
And all you had to say was, "Sorry"

You said, "Sorry"
