I'm sorry to say
I never meant to hurt you
I'm sorry my love let me dry your tears away
Three simple words
That I've should have told you
Are trapped deep inside to protect a broken heart

Life is full of mysteries
A book with empty pages
Every step walked down the road has something to reveal
Love has come and gone away
Yet never last forever
Leaving pain and emptiness behind

I'm sorry to say
I never meant to hurt you
I'm sorry my love let me dry your tears away
Three simple words
That I've should have told you
Are trapped deep inside to protect a broken heart

Hide behind the mask you cannot see
Shadows of experience moving fast
Hide behind the smile you cannot hear
The crying of the echoes from the past

I'm sorry to say
I never meant to hurt you
I'm sorry my love let me dry your tears away
Three simple words
That I've should have told you
I'm trapped deep inside to protect a broken heart
