Píseň: I Apologize

Interpret:
Anita Baker
Album:
Rhythm Of Love
Operator

Get my baby on the line

Just the other night

We had a horrible fight

I admit that I

I was out of control

But I still love my man

With my body and soul

When the road gets rough

You say things you should not say

I never meant

To treat my baby that way



~chorus~

I apologize

Oh, believe me I do

I apologize

Honest and true

Because I know I was wrong

So I sing you this song

And I'm tryin' to get through

To make it up to you, yeah



Operator

It was like a bad dream

Lord, you should have heard

The way he shouted and the way that I screamed

I regret it cause I was unfair

I took it all out on him

Just because he was there

When the road gets rough

You say things you should not say

I never meant to treat my daddy that way



~repeat chorus~



I apologize

'Cause I was unkind

And I wish that I could go back in time

Erase our goodbyes

And rewrite my lines

But come rain or come shine

I'm gonna do it right this time

I apologize
