[Verse 1]
You came down to the room
And I could see it written all over you
Said you already know
And I said "sorry, but I gotta go"
[Pre-Chorus]
And I ripped these walls apart
And I went and shot an arrow right through your heart
But how those times have changed
Cause now you don't remember my name
[Chorus]
I'm sorry that I'm here so late
And please don't turn my heart away
For your love, I can change, cause without you, I'm so hollow
I'm sorry that I let you go
It's only when it's lost you know
Seeing you, missing you, such a bitter pill to swallow
No, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
[Verse 2]
I guess I played my cards too late
Cause now my body can't take the weight
And once we flew so high, oh
But now I'm afraid to fly, oh oh oh
[Chorus]
I'm sorry that I'm here so late
And please don't turn my heart away
For your love, I can change, cause without you, I'm so hollow
I'm sorry that I let you go
It's only when it's lost you know
Seeing you, missing you, such a bitter pill to swallow
No, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
[Chorus]
I'm sorry that I'm here so late
And please don't turn my heart away
For your love, I can change, cause without you, I'm so hollow
I'm sorry that I let you go
It's only when it's lost you know
Seeing you, missing you, such a bitter pill to swallow
Seeing you, missing you, such a bitter pill to swallow
No, oh, oh
No, oh, oh
Noooohh
