Lyrics
I'M SORRY
I'm sorry, but some things just don't last.
I'm sorry, I just can't change the past
I'm sorry, oh so sorry, but I don't love you anymore.
I'm so tired of all your sweet little lies.
I'm tired, I want some nice, gentle guy.
I'm tired, oh so tired and I won't take the blame anymore - anymore!
I know it wasn't always bad times.
Yes, I know we shared a lot of good.
And I know that once I really loved you
But it's over - I won't be your victim - stay out of my bed!
Yes, I'm tired of being locked out the door.
I'm tired of just being ignored.
I'm tired, oh so tired 'cuz I know I['m worth so much more -
So much more!
INSTRUMENTAL
And I know that once I really loved you,
But it's over - I won't be your victim - stay out of my bed!
I am sorry, I know that you'lll never change.
I'm sorry, I'm not gonna play your silly games.
I'm sorry, oh so sorry,
but I won't waste my time anymore, anymore...
And honey, you're the one who's gonna be sorry...
