He use to send her flowers
To apologise, to apologise
He used to say how sorry he was
And flash his smile, he`d flash his smile
And always she`d forgive him
`Cause he`d mean it for a while
And then he`d send her flowers
To apologise, to apologise
It wasn`t that he meant her harm
I realise, I realise
It`s just that life had taken him
By surprise, by surprise
At times he knew he`d failed her
At times he really tried
When times were worst he did his best
To compromise, to comprise
I told her once he`d break her heart
But that wasn`t true, wasn`t true
`Cause broken things can be repaired
And held onto, held onto
But her heart had been shattered
The pieces lay inside
In fragments much TOO tiny
To recognise, to recognise
I look now at the weariness
That lies in his eyes, in his eyes
And who AM I to lay the blame
Or criticize, or criticize
He`s sorry that he`s living
He`s sorry he`s alive
He`s sorry of the need
To apologise, to apologise
He`s sorry of the need
To apologise, to apologise
