Small Mercies – Sorry lyrics

When the light illuminates the scene
I try to shake this heart of mine from off my dirty sleeve
Call me a fool or maybe just naive
As all I have to share this place is my own company

Yeah give me the strength I can trust
Give me the will to ignite
I know what it's like

I'm sorry now that I let you go
You were the better part of me I know
If only I could show
Baby I love you
You linger on like a melody
You gave me so much more than you received
I only I had seen
Baby I love you now

Like a kite I navigate the air
If only I'd flown higher then, if only I had dared
And who's to say that life can be unfair
I deserved all that I got, it's all that I can bare

Yeah, give me the strength I can trust
Give me the will to ignite
I know what it's like

I'm sorry now that I let you go
You were the better part of me I know
If only I could show
Baby I love you
You linger on like a melody
You gave me so much more than you received
I only I had seen
Baby I love you now

Now can't you see you belong with me
I will carry your hurt, it's a burden I've earned

I'm sorry now that I let you go
You were the better part of me I know
If only I could show
Baby I love you
You linger on like a melody
You gave me so much more than you received
I only I had seen
Baby I love you now
I'm sorry now that I let you go
You were the better part of me I know
If only I could show
Baby I love you, baby I love, baby I love you now
