Apology Letter Lyrics

Sitting back throwing balls of paper at my trash can

I'm not made for the league

Got this pen, the second one that I done put in my hand

And it's almost outta ink

Trying to find the words

Hoping you'll walk in the door

Just to remember you left behind your key

You ain't thinking bout me

You might even be relieved

Still I gotta find a way

I gotta make you see

I gotta say

That I'm sorry

For everything I went and put you through

I did some things I said I'd never do to you

And I gotta say

That I would do it so differently

Guess hindsight's 20/20

And there'll be more to read

If you ever get this letter

I'm not nearly as selfish

Still allergic to most shellfish

Figured I should clear the air a bit

Lighten up this letter though you'll probably never open it

But just in case you do

Since the tension is still very thick

I miss your mom and dad

Parents I never had

But most of all how I miss your laugh

Wish I could hear it again

It's a reach, wishful thinking

Since I broke your heart

But maybe I can mend it if I say

That I'm sorry

For everything I went and put you through

I did some things I said I'd never do to you

And I gotta say

That I would do it so differently

Guess hindsight's 20/20

And there'll be more to read

If you ever get this letter

I hope I get the chance

To see you by happenstance

I'll keep this letter on hand

These words that leave my head

Hope they help you understand

I haven't given up yet

I spilled a couple tears

So ink is gonna smear

Hope you still make out the words

To see just how I feel

Don't plan on slowing down

I'm gonna pour it out

Because I need you here

So I'm gonna say

That I'm sorry

For everything I went and put you through

I did some things I said I'd never do to you

And I gotta say

That I would do it so differently

Guess hindsight's 20/20

And there'll be more to read

If you ever get this letter

I'm sorry

For everything I went and put you through

I did some things I said I'd never do to you

And I gotta say

That I would do it so differently

Guess hindsight's 20/20

And there'll be more to read

If you ever get this letter
