Apologize
Charles Perry Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It's a crazy town
I got to so much to say
Just hear me out
Eh, oh oh oh
Things are different now
If we drink some champagne maybe we'll work it out
Eh, oh oh oh
I've been thinking 'bout life
And I, I, know I fucked up once or twice
But I, I, thought you could've been my wife
I, I, I

I, I apologize
I never meant to hurt you
I'm gonna love you till it's right
I, I apologize
I never meant to hurt you
I'm gonna love you till it's right

You've been on the ground
And I just can't imagine you're happy now
Eh, oh oh oh
The way we got down
I know nobody's lovin' you like I know how
Eh, oh oh oh

I've been thinking 'bout life
And I, I, know I fucked up once or twice
But I, I, thought you could've been my wife
I, I, I

I, I apologize
I never meant to hurt you
I'm gonna love you till it's right
I, I apologize
I never meant to hurt you
I'm gonna love you till it's right

Thinking 'bout, thinking 'bout, thinking 'bout love
Thinking 'bout, thinking 'bout, thinking 'bout love
If you won't find it
It'll be here in this club
Thinking 'bout, thinking 'bout, thinking 'bout love
Thinking 'bout, thinking 'bout, thinking 'bout love
If you won't find it
It'll be here in this club

I, I apologize
I never meant to hurt you
I'm gonna love you till it's right
I, I apologize




I never meant to hurt you
I'm gonna love you till it's right
