I'm sorry for all
those times I called you stupid or wouldn't listen to your ideas
I'm sorry that when I'm supposed to be with you instead I go to Maria's
I'm sorry that I am never around and that
I'm never here
I'm sorry that when you give and give I just can't learn to share
I'm sorry that when you say something
nice out of my mouth comes something mean
I know most people use the excuse, "Well what do you expect, I'm just
a teen."
But that excuse won't work with you
because you know me inside and out
You could pick me out of a crowd you know what I'm about
While I on the other hand, could never
find you because I have never really tried
You would know about the deeper side of me if only I would let you see
But still you reach up to me just to be
rejected
How do you do this and never seem to be affected
How long can you do this? Only you know
that
But this is something that I know - this is a fact
Every time you need a hand I just keep
pushing you away
But whenever I fall down you're always there to say, "Are you
okay?"
Many things I have told you have just
been lies but this I know is true
Whenever I say I love you, pleas believe it is sincere and I really do
love you
I know I don't tell you how I feel or
when I do it's never loud enough for you to hear|
But this is you time to listen and this is my turn to share
Many things I have done to you have been
wrong but I know this is right
I will never stop loving you not till my last night
I love you so much and from now on I will
always be there
