Sorry?! Lyrics
It seems like such a long time ago, but I don't know if I'm ever gonna let her go
Well, I remember the first time that I met her, I knew she was the one
There couldn't be anybody better
Well, I was lost when I looked in her eyes
I didn't even have a chance, I didn't, I was mesmerized
Well those eyes, those eyes, they made me realize...
Sorry, Sorry... Well, I did not want it to be
Sorry, Sorry... I could not see
Sorry, Sorry... Well Lord, how could this be?
Sorry, Sorry... Well, it's raining down on me
Well, I know it sounds crazy to say
But in everything I do, I think about that day
Last time I talked to her was on the telephone
She said "I know it's been a while, but I don't feel like being alone"
I slammed down the phone on the last thing I'd hear her say
Now it's getting harder to live with it every day
And I pray, I pray that you can hear me say
Sorry, Sorry... I could not see
Sorry, Sorry... But it don't seem fair to me
Sorry, Sorry... Lord, how could this be?
Sorry, Sorry... It's raining right down on me
I'M SORRY
Not a day goes by when I do not sit and wonder why this had to be
It don't seem fair to me
No, no, no, no. how could this be?
The more I wish and pray, the more it seems I waste away
But it would mean oh so much if I could just reach out and our hands would touch
And if I'd just go back again I know it'd all be different, have a happy end
I know exactly right where I'd start
I'd send her a letter straight from my heart
It doesn't seem fair, why can't I forgive?
She was oh so young, she didn't even have a chance to live
And it's oh so hard to forgive
Sometimes people think I don't know what to say because I'm looking out in space
But inside I'm praying
I pray, I pray, I pray, pray, pray
And then I think about the day she died
About that night and in the morning I'd cry cry cry
And I cried, I cried just as hard as I could
Sorry... Well, I did not want it to be
Sorry... Well, it don't seem fair to me
Sorry... Lord, how could this be?
Sorry... She died, but it's killing me
Wonderin' about that time, when it'll be my day
And I wonder what I'll see or what she'll be, and if I'll have the courage to stay
And I lost so much sleep thinkin' out of my head, wonderin' if I'll be
Strong enough to look her straight in the eye, and tell her that I'm Sorry!?
Well, I remember the first time that I met her, I knew she was the one

Amazing song. Can't believe there are no comments on it. One of my favorite ST songs
I highly agree Bobby. This is off my favorite ST album, How will I Laugh Tomorrow when I can't even smile today?
The song is most likely about a a relationship between the singer and a girl. Something happened between the 2, and she deserted him. She tries to get back to him after her plan falls out, and he, being angry of her leaving him, refuses to listen to her. Then the girl dies, and he feels sorry for not being able to be with her.
It's almost sarcastic the title is. I feel the Sorry?! part is more aimed at her trying to get back with him, and when she dies, he realized that although she treated him like crap, they did need each other. ST is really deep.
For me this IS the best ST tune.
Anyway, he meets 'the one', and knows it, but she leaves him, possibly taking him for granted, and he is understandably distressed, but when she realises he is gone, tries to patch it up, he slams the phone down, as he can't cope with the pain anymore, and she commits suicide - something that he ponders 24/7, with deep regret and sorrow.
In the end he is forced to consider his own mortality, and what he might say, or do, if he could see her one more time.
I am agree with you. He is not ironic. He cannot forget her and he tries to get her back with something he must said long time ago. But it's too late, and his love cannot died. It's emotional and whole songs have some depressed lyrics.
