Seems like such a long time ago, but I don't know if I'm ever gonna let her go. I remember the first time that I met her, I knew she was the one. There couldn't be anybody better. Well, I was lost when I looked in her eyes Well those eyes, those eyes, they made me realize... Sorry...I didn't know what was to be Sorry...I could not see Sorry...Lord how could this be Sorry...It's raining down on me Well, I know it sounds crazy to say. But, in everything I do, I think about that day. Last time I talked to her was on the telephone. She said I know it's been a while, but I don't feel like being alone. I slammed down the phone on the last thing I'd hear her say. Now it's getting harder to live with it every day and I pray, I pray that you can hear me say Sorry...I could not see Sorry...It don't seem fair to me Sorry...Lord, how could this be Sorry...It's raining right down on me Not a day goes by when I do not sit and wonder why this had to be. It don't seem fair to me. No no, it don't seem fair to me. The more I wish and pray, the more it seems I waste away. But it would mean oh so much if I could just reach out and our hands would touch and if I'd just go back again and do it all over it'd have a happy end. I know exactly the way I would start. I'd send her a letter straight from my heart. It doesn't seem fair, why can't I forgive. She was so strung out, she didn't even have a chance to live and it's oh so hard to forgive. Sometimes people think I don't know what to say because I'm looking out in space, but inside I'm praying and I pray, I pray, I pray, pray, pray and then I think about the day she died. About that night and in the morning. I cry cry cry and I try, I try to understand Sorry...I didn't know what was to be Sorry...It don't seem fair to me Sorry...Lord I'll always be Sorry...She died but it's killing me Wondering about that time when it'll be my day And I wonder what I'll do and what she'll say and if I'll have the courage to stay And I'll start by looking her straight in the eye and telling her that I'm Sorry
