Apologies

Lyrics

Verse 1We were kids once, runnin’ wild,Childhood sweethearts in the summertime.Life pulled us different ways,But you stayed somewhere in the back of my mind.Years went by, we prayed for love,After all the hurt we both survived.God brought us back around again,Gave us one more chance to get it right. Verse 2But I let my stress get heavy,Let that petty thing we had sit too long.Mixed it with the liquor and my feelings,And everything just came out wrong.I was wrong, and I admit it,I let the moment take control.Let the liquor and my heartbreakTurn me into someone I don’t know. HookI pushed you when I should’ve paused,I hurt you when I should’ve held.I’m sorry for the things I said,And the way that everything felt.I’m takin’ time to fix myself,To calm the storms inside of me.And Matt, I hope someday you’ll understandMy apology comes honestly. Verse 3You didn’t deserve that version,You deserved the girl who loved you first.The one who dreamed about foreverBefore life ever taught us hurt.I let old wounds bleed into us,Let my past get in the way.Now I’m sittin’ in the quiet,Facing everything I couldn’t say. HookI pushed you when I should’ve paused,I hurt you when I should’ve held.I’m sorry for the things I said,And the way that everything felt.I’m takin’ time to fix myself,To calm the storms inside of me.And Matt, I hope someday you’ll understandMy apology comes honestly. BridgeI’m not askin’ you to forget it,I’m not askin’ you to pretend.I just want you to know I’m growin’,And I never meant to break what we began.From childhood dreams to grown‑up love,We finally got our second chance.And I’m prayin’ with a humble heartWe’ll find our way back to that dance. Final HookI pushed you when I should’ve paused,I hurt you when I should’ve held.I’m sorry for the night I lost myselfAnd let the chaos take my head.I’m takin’ time to fix myself,To calm the storms inside of me.And Matt, if forgiveness finds your heart,I hope it brings you back to me.
