I know you didn't mean it and you're sorry that i left I'll go right on pretending i've got nothing to regret Except all of the times we wasted giving only second best You always seemed to lose the spark when i was only half undressed I drove across a sea of ice to find my own command The distance paid a lonesome price to see its motherland Now if you would unbuckle sir, receive your reprimand And hey i'm sorry 'bout so much baby but i know you'll understand I'm sorry 'bout so much baby but i know you'll understand How can i ever apologize? I meant you no such harm I never knew i could possess that fatal kind of charm I just wanted to be good to you but i found i was disarmed By a lifetime of disillusionment and the distraction of the stars I abdicated now i'm just a prince without a land My subjects all adore me but for this i have been banned Now could i trade my guilt for a good flogging by your hand? And hey i'm sorry 'bout so much baby but i know you'll understand I'm sorry 'bout so much baby but i know you'll understand I can't understand why you refuse my one request Just to press against my weaponry and then lay bare your chest Challenges like these can be won or lost or laid to rest Now we both agree to separate from the lonely castle steps The kingdom is destabilized, the watchtower unmanned The bedroom lies abandoned and the future is unplanned But we've got the past to remind us of love chivalrous and grand And hey i'm sorry 'bout so much baby but i know you'll understand I'm sorry 'bout so much baby but i know you'll understand
