i couldn't believe what i was seeing
faces all screwed up like what i'd done
i didn't mean to hurt you so much
i knew it would hurt you but not like this
we all make a mess from time to time dear
but it'll take me a lifetime to get this cleared
somebody muttered something under their breath
but i let on like i was a little deaf

nobody's perfect that's what i say
no one has hurt me so much you say
I'm sorry

running away seemed like the easy
thing to do because i wanted time
to put a smile back on my dour face
for once nothing 's missing and i feel fine
i was afraid to tell you some things
but some things all find a way to get told
hearing it from the lips of somebody else
must have knocked the wind out of you sweet chest


nobody's perfect that's what i say
no one has hurt me so much you say
I'm sorry


nobody's perfect that's what i say
no one has hurt me so much you say
I'm sorry
