It's been 20 years since I rose and cleared my throat
|
It's been 10 years since I stood outside the church
|
It's been 9 years since the ground became the sky
|
It's been 8 years since I found an alibi
|
It's been 6 years since the dogs picked up the game
|
It's been 4 years since I learned to love the pain
|
It's been 1 year since I stole life from the grave
|
And over all these years, just three things I've tried to say
|
|
I was wrong, I'm sorry and I love you
|
I was wrong, I'm sorry and I love you
|
I was wrong, I'm sorry and I love you
|
I love you
|
|
I welcome everyone but give 'em nothing when they arrive
|
Or else build a house with no way to come inside
|
I've learned to hide my tears, learned to hold them deep inside
|
And then sell my fears just to pick your pockets dry
|
|
I was wrong, I'm sorry and I love you
|
I was wrong, I'm sorry and I love you
|
I was wrong, I'm sorry and I love you
|
|
I have misled you
|
I have misread you
|
I've cared too much and not enough in the same breath
|
You've been my hope, my stretch of rope in life and death
|
|
And I was wrong, I'm sorry and I love you
|
I was wrong, I'm sorry and I love you
|
I was wrong, I'm sorry and I love you
|
I love you
|
I love you
|
I love you
|

I Was Wrong, I'm Sorry & I Love You
