I’m sorry, so sorry
That I was such a fool
I didn’t know
Love could be so cruel
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

You tell me mistakes
Are part of being young
But that don’t right
The wrong that’s been done
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

I’m sorry, I’m sorry
So sorry, please accept my apology
But love was blind
And I was too blind to see
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

You tell me mistakes
Are part of being young
But that don’t right
The wrong that’s been done
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

I’m sorry, I’m sorry
So sorry, please accept my apology
But love was blind
And I was too blind to see
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

I’m sorry, I’m sorry
So sorry, please accept my apology
But love was blind
And I was too blind to see
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
