[Verse 1]
I never wanted to cause doubt in your mind
I'm not acting the way I think you'd like
We went for dinner and now you're acting paranoid
If only you knew the way I felt inside on that night
[Refrain]
(Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)
[Verse 2]
Your paranoia, it happens all the time
And that's 'cause lying's a big problem of mine (Just a problem for me)
But I still do it, now I'm by myself again
I tell so many that I can't see them end, so I said
[Pre-Chorus]
If I could, I would make amends
Today, I wrote a list of them
The way it starts, the way it ends
I signed my name in marker pen (Yeah)
[Chorus]
I must apologise
Before I end thе night
[Post-Chorus]
It's not a game, I want to change
Thesе days it doesn't feel the same
The way it did some years before
I've lost so much, I'll lose some more
[Verse 3]
I'm not able
To tell you what you need, it's a shame 'cause
They say I should be honest more, one day, I'm sure
I'll figure out the reason I was telling lies for
[Refrain]
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh (I must apologise)
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh (Before I end the night)
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

In a press release:
“I must apologise” is a fast-paced, upbeat track about someone telling lies all the time. It is a song that tells a niche tale underneath the synths of Crystal Waters’s track “Gypsy Woman”.
This track was produced by Oscar Scheller [Rina Sawayama, Ashnikko]. I was trying to stay away from a sample at this point, but there’s something about this beat [from Crystal Waters’ 1991 single ‘Gypsy Woman (She’s Homeless)’] which drugged me. When we started writing it, Oscar gave me the idea for...
