What Can I Say After I Say I’m Sorry

I don't know why I made you cry
I'm sorry, sweetheart and yet
Though you shouldn't be lenient with me
I hope you'll forgive and forget

What can I say, dear, after I say I'm sorry?
What can I do to prove it to you
I'm sorry?
I didn't mean to ever be mean to you
If I didn't care
I wouldn't feel like I do

I was all wrong
But right or wrong
I don't blame you
Why should I take somebody like you and shame you

I know that I made you cry
And I'm so sorry, dear
So what can I say, dear, after I say I'm sorry?

You made me glad
I made you sad
I made you lonesome and blue
And who ever knew
Who'd ever think that I would be crying to you

What can I say, dear, after I say I'm sorry?
What can I do to prove it to you
I'm sorry?
I didn't mean to ever be mean to you
If I didn't care
I wouldn't feel like I do

I was all wrong
But right or wrong
I don't blame you
Why should I take somebody like you
And shame you

I know that I made you cry
And I'm so sorry, dear
So what can I say, dear, after I say I'm sorry?
