I'm sorry about the decorating I'm sorry about the washing-up I'm sorry about trying too hard I'm sorry about giving up I'm sorry, and you are too But these things come so hard to you I'm a mess-up, we know it's true It's something we'll get used to Surely there's something that Makes it easier Surely there's something that Might occur to you Why not apologise, Even though you know you're right? Why not say you're wrong? It might help you sleep tonight Sorry's not a dirty word Sorry lets you tell yourself You can let it pass for a bigger thing tomorrow And if we force ourselves We might dream of it It hurts to face up, even a little bit I think you see it now Why not say it loud? I wanna say something None of us have heard before I wanna say something That makes you feel secure Why not apologise, Even though you know you're right? Why not say you're wrong? It might help you sleep tonight Sorry's not a dirty word Sorry lets you tell the world You can let it pass, you can let it go Surely there's something That might make it easier Surely that thing might Just occur to you Why not apologise, Even though you know you're right? Why not say you're wrong? It might help you sleep tonight Sorry's not a dirty word Sorry lets you tell the world You can let it pass for a bigger thing tomorrow Why not apologise, Even though you know you're right? Why not say you're wrong? It might let you sleep tonight Sorry's not a dirty word Sorry helps you tell the world You can let it pass, you can let it go
