Say I'm Sorry

As I sit in this coffee shop
Halfway through your note, I had to stop
Right near the end, the letter read

Maybe when I leave, I'll lead a life less empty
Maybe we were waiting way too long
To end this soap opera story
You'll accept just half of all these consequences
Maybe then that's when I'll finally say I'm sorry

Why didn't you, why didn't I, why couldn't we, I wonder why?

She called me up the other day
And thank God, I knew exactly what to say
You left me with this note and I quote
From this note you wrote

Maybe when I leave, I'll lead a life less empty
Maybe we were waiting way too long
To end this soap opera story
You'll accept just half of all these consequences
Maybe then that's when I'll finally say I'm sorry

Why didn't you, why didn't I, why couldn't we, I wonder why?
Why didn't you, why didn't I, why couldn't we, I wonder why?
Why didn't you, why didn't I? Oh

Maybe when I leave, I'll lead a life less empty
Maybe we were waiting way too long
To end this soap opera story
You'll accept just half of all these consequences
Maybe then that's when I'll finally say I'm sorry
Then that's when I'll finally say I'm sorry
Maybe then that's when I'll finally say I'm sorry
