I'm Sorry (But So Is Brenda Lee)

Marshall Crenshaw


When you're young, you do what you think you're 'spossed to
(yes you do) 
There ain't no big hand from heaven reachin' down to guide you 
Well, I thought I loved you; I made a promise that I couldn't
keep 
Oh I'm sorry, and so is Brenda Lee 
We used to laugh at how we would prove them all wrong 
And it was gonna be blue skies and endless sweet love songs 
Oh nowadays baby, you won't even admit that you once knew me 
Well, well, I'm sorry, and so is Brenda Lee 
Well, it's funny how the world turns 'round 
It's funny how the seasons go 
It's funny how it always rains on the day you get your shoes
shined 
And it's funny, how apart we've grown 
Oh yeah baby it looks like you've gone your way, 
and I guess I'll go mine 
Oh, I know you've got your reasons for being unkind 
Aw, but that's all right, darlin' 
I'm never gonna miss the way things used to be 
Oh I'm sorry, and so is Brenda Lee 
Yea I'm sorry, and so is Brenda Lee 
Well I'm sorry, and so is Brenda Lee
