" Why Is It So Hard to Say Sorry "

" Why Is It So Hard to Say Sorry "
( Lyrics By Gerald Logan)

( Verse 1 )
I see the hurt in your eyes tonight
I know I’ve been wrong, but I just hold on tight
Words get caught somewhere deep in my pride
And silence keeps building walls inside

( Chorus )
Why is it so hard to say sorry?
Why can’t I just let my heart speak true?
It’s three little words, but they weigh like stones
I should be running to make things right with you
Why is it so hard, why is it so hard
To say sorry to you?

( Verse 2 )
I rehearse the lines when I’m all alone
But face to face they just turn to stone
I’d rather fight than let weakness show
But it’s killing me more than you’ll ever know

( Chorus )
Why is it so hard to say sorry?
Why can’t I just let my heart speak true?
It’s three little words, but they weigh like stones
I should be running to make things right with you
Why is it so hard, why is it so hard
To say sorry to you?

( Bridge )
Maybe I’m scared that you won’t forgive
Or maybe I’m chained by the way I live
But love was never meant to be this cold
I’ve gotta find the strength to let it go

( Chorus )
Why is it so hard to say sorry?
Why can’t I just let my heart speak true?
It’s three little words, but they weigh like stones
I should be running to make things right with you
Why is it so hard, why is it so hard
To say sorry to you?

( Outro )
Tomorrow might come and you’ll be gone
And I’ll be left with a lifetime wrong
So tonight I’ll whisper, trembling but true
“I’m sorry… I love you.”
