In the fury of the moment
When the words of wrath rang out
When my mind was filled with questions
And my head was filled with doubt
I can still see sadness, heartbreak
And the sorrow in your eyes
How can flowers live in darkness?
How can i apologize?

For the blackness i've created
In the world that used to shine
I have wilted all the roses
And have spoiled all the wine
Just get out your magic pencil
And erase the cloudy skies
Just draw a picture of me
Saying, "i apologize."

Give me back the words i spoke in haste
Give 'em back, our love will go to waste
Give 'em back

See the sunlight reappearing
Through the shrouds of dark and blue
As i hear the words forgiving me
And watch the flowers bloom
After time has lost that moment
And we've mended broken ties
I will still be on my knees
Saying, "i apologize."

Give me (back the words i spoke in haste)
Give 'em (back, our love will go to waste)
Give 'em (back)
