I'm Sorry

I’m sorry for the things I said,
or was it the way I said them?
I’m sorry if I hurt your feelings,
truth often does.

But you’ll find truth’s the only road
to take us to where we’re going.
I’m sorry it had to be that way,
but that’s the way it was.

There are so many things
I should have changed before they happened.
There are so many words
I would have changed the meanings of.

Like, when I said, “I love you”
it would have meant, “I’m not certain.”
Then I could have been certain
before I told you it was love.

I guess you find it hard
to understand what I’ve been saying.
I guess your mind is filled
with painted pictures of the past.

But, now you have to understand
it wasn’t what it seemed like.
You couldn’t have known me too well
to think that it might last.

I’m sorry for the things I said,
or was it the way I said them?
I’m sorry if I hurt your feelings,
truth often does.

But you’ll find truth’s the only road
to take us to where we’re going.
I’m sorry it had to be that way,
but that’s the way it was.
