I'm Sorry
Denver John Lyrics

It's cold here in the city
The city is a lonely place and it makes me realize that everything is not the same without you

It always seems that way
It feels like this all the time and I can't escape it

And I've been thinking about you almost everyday
You are always on my mind and I can't stop thinking about you, no matter how hard I try

Thinking about the good times
I reminisce about the happy moments we shared together

Thinking about the rain
The rainy days make me miss you even more

Thinking about how bad it feels alone again
Being alone reminds me of how much it hurts to be without you

I'm sorry for the way things are in China
I apologize for the current state of affairs, even though I have no control over it

I'm sorry things ain't what they used to be
I regret that things have changed and we can't go back to the way things were

But more than anything else
Above all else

I'm sorry for myself
I am sorry for how much I am hurting, and how much of it is due to you not being here

'Cause you're not here with me
I miss you terribly and wish you were here with me

Our friends all ask about you
Our mutual friends inquire about you often

And I say you're doing fine
I tell them that you are doing well, even though I am not sure if that is true

And I expect to hear from you almost anytime
I hope to hear from you soon and eagerly anticipate any contact from you

But they all know I'm crying
Despite my efforts to hide it, our friends know that I am still crying over you and I can't stop

And I can't sleep at night
My thoughts keep me awake at night, and I find it hard to fall asleep without you

They all know I'm dying down deep inside
Even though I try to hide it, our friends know that I am dying inside without you

I'm sorry for all the lies I told you
I apologize for not always being honest with you

I'm sorry for the things I didn't say
I regret not telling you things that I should have and keeping them to myself

I can't believe you went away
I still can't believe that you left and it seems like a bad dream

I'm sorry if I took some things for granted
I apologize if I did not appreciate everything that you did for me as much as I should have

I'm sorry for the chains I put on you
I regret being too possessive and controlling in our relationship

For living without you
Living without you is unbearable and I hate it
