What does it take to make you hurt someone you love?
Littler than you might think
What could have possessed you, what force from above?
Could make you be such a fink

"I'm sorry" is just two little words
How can they take back what's done
And I can't make them mean enough
And force these things undone

How is it that when you love so much
You can hurt so much more?
How is it that you can do something stupid
And make someone's heart so sore

I fall here, at your feet to ask
If it's possible that you could still love me
Or that that it hasn't just evaporated away
In my mistake's lee..

O woe such a day that I came to cause you pain
For it was the last thing I ever desired
And I'll completely understand if you turn away
And tell me so coldly that I'm fired
