sorry
Never Shout Never Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I've been caught at the scene of the crime.
I'm in love with a woman,
But the woman's not mine.

Shes tied the knot with an acquaintance.
I'm doing my best to be patient.

I wrote her a song but she wasn't impressed.
She's nonchalant but she's so well dressed.

I'm in love, with bad timing.
She's in love, the knots unwinding.
I'm in love, and I'm sorry (sorry)
Yeah I'm sorry whoa (sorry)
Yeah I'm sorry (sorry)
Yeah I'm sorry!

And I'm sorry (sorry)
Yeah I'm sorry whoa (sorry)
Yeah I'm sorry (sorry)
Yeah I'm sorry!

Is it driven by selfish ambition.
I feel like a traitor on a patriots mission.
It ain't life, it ain't death, it is love, love, love.
I'm in love with a woman,
But the woman's not mine.

Shes tied the knot with an acquaintance.
I'm doing my best to be patient.

I wrote her a song but she wasn't impressed.
She's nonchalant but she's so well dressed.

I'm in love, with bad timing.
She's in love, the knots unwinding.
I'm in love

And I'm sorry that I fell (sorry that I fell)
I'm sure he treats you very well (I'm sure he treats you very well)
I hope to see you soon (I hope to see you soon)
I've been howlin' at the moon
Call me if you can (call me if you can)
I want to be your man (I want to be your man)

I'm in love, with bad timing.
She's in love, the knots unwinding.
I'm in love, and I'm sorry (sorry)
Yeah I'm sorry whoa (sorry)
Yeah I'm sorry (sorry)
Yeah I'm sorry!

And I'm sorry (sorry)
Yeah I'm sorry whoa (sorry)




Yeah I'm sorry (sorry)
Yeah I'm sorry!

The reason why I've always loved Never Shout Never and Christofer was because whenever they put out new songs, I'd always find atleast one song I could completely relate to. This is definitely one that I relate to and am completely in love with. I'm in love with my best friend and this describes the situation almist perfectly

is it weird that i cried because of how good this album is

Indigo is an album full of new and old style, with very spiritual songs, maybe for some people this songs have no meaning but well, you can't find diamonds without digging deep inside.

krystal
