I wish you were next to me
I'm sorry that you will never know
This will be nothing more than
A whisper in a breeze that
You can't quite catch the meaning ofI'm sorry for my silence when you are around
And my pain when you were gone
I'm sorry that I can't say "I love you"
I'm sorry that I'd rather be a puddle of tears
Rather than a heap of embarrassmentAgain I'm sorry that you will never know
That my heart skips a beat
When I hear your name
I'm sorry that I never told you
How I really feelI'm sorry for the moments
When I don't know what to say
That the tears you shed
Couldn't be wiped up by me
I'm sorry that the oxygen went to waste
On the three words you will never hear
