I'm Sorry
The Kolors Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I told you lies and I didn't care
I wasn't ready for the things we shared
It's time to break up when you feel this way
But time goes by time goes by
You wanna know why you wanna know why
You're missing the time she was at your side
I'm sorry, yeah
Baby I'm sorry
I already tried to fill the void you're leaving
It's hard to figure out you're gone
I know you're trying to cancel me from
The life you're living now but
I want you to know
The reason why I've been away too long
I want you to know
The pangs of conscience took me
Here to tell you
I'm sorry
Baby I'm sorry
I'm sorry
'Cause tonight you're alright
And you're not by my side
I'm sorry
I'm sorry
There are some days when I think I can make it
Then it's hard to figure out you're gone
And then I find myself running away from
The lies I keep on telling
I want you to know
The reason why I've been away too long
But I want you to know
The pangs of conscience took me
Here to tell you
I'm sorry
Baby I'm sorry
I'm sorry
'Cause tonight you're alright
And you're not by my side
It's the wait to let you know
It's the wait to let you know
Know I'm sorry
Baby I'm sorry
I'm sorry
'Cause tonight you're alright
And you're not by my side
I'm sorry
I'm sorry
