So here I am writing you this letter   Looking for the words to make things better and   Every time I think I've finally found them   I find myself staring at a mountain   Of crumpled paper with ink stained hands   Broken promises and messed up plans   No idea how to get this through   All I know is I just gotta tell you      I never meant to say what's on my mind   I wish that I could some how make it right   There's no excuse for everything I put you through   I never meant to laugh when I saw you cry   I know it's kinda late to apologize   I swear it's true, I'm gonna make it up to you      Sorry if you think it's kind of shallow   But this guilt is getting hard to swallow   I don't know what was going through my head   I take the blame for every tear you shed   I meant it good but it turned out bad   And it cost me the best thing I ever had   No idea how to get this through   All I know is I just gotta tell you      I never meant to say what's on my mind   I wish that I could some how make it right   There's no excuse for everything I put you through   I never meant to laugh when I saw you cry   I know it's kinda late to apologize   I swear it's true, I'm gonna make it up to you      Just let me try   Just let me try   Try to apologize      I never meant to say what's on my mind   I wish that I could some how make it right   There's no excuse for everything I put you through   I never meant to laugh when I saw you cry   I know it's kinda late to apologize   I swear it's true, I'm gonna make it up to you      I'm gonna make it up to you   I swear it's true, I'm gonna make it up to you
