Softly Spoken

[Verse 1]
I'm thunder, you're lightnin'
The clouds come and we appear
I hurt you, you hurt me
It hurts, we never show our tears
I scream out, you slam doors
So loud that it is never clear
I'm sorry

[Verse 2]
I might be defensive
But I promise that I'm listenin'
Despite all my defences
Know I'll always let you in
It kills me, this silence
So quiet, it is deafenin'
I'm sorry

[Chorus]
Sorry is a word we don't wanna say
Sorry takes time, but it's never too late
Sorry is a word you wait for halfway hopin'
Softly spoken
Softly spoken

[Verse 3]
The lights out, you lay hеre
Beside mе, but so far away
I whisper, "I'm sorry"
I'm sorry, that's so hard to say
I might try tomorrow
Or leave it for another day
I'm sorry

[Chorus]
Sayin' sorry doesn't have to mean you're wrong
Sorry's just a sign that the love ain't gone yet
Sorry sounds best when you say it with your heart wide open
Softly spoken
Softly spoken

[Outro]
(Softly spoken) I think that maybe I let you
I think that maybe I let you down
(Softly spoken) I think that maybe you let me down
(Softly spoken) I think that maybe I let you
I think that maybe I let you down
(Softly spoken) I think that maybe you let me down
Ain't the best words
Softly spoken?
