whoops

What do you do when you've stuck your foot in your mouth and hurt someone you care about? Ah, the question pretty much everyone has asked. "Do not let what is unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen." Too bad I don't know when to stop being melodramatic and start being wise.

I'm sorry for what I said about you
Will you accept my apology?
I am sorry
Hey, now what am I to do?
I'd better think twice before I make my move
'Cause last time I didn't think it through
Don't know where it's going to go
Don't know what we're going to do
And hey, now what am I to say?
My foolish words got in the way of us being friends
Wake up, make up, can we get along again?

I don't really want to fight over something that's really nothing?
It doesn't matter
I don't really want to scar your heart with words that hurt you
I won't hurt you

Did you feel all right
When you hung me out to dry?
Everybody knew
When you put it on the six o'clock story on the nightly news
Now it's time to think
Through this mess of words we made
Tongues are hard to tame
Powerful as politics, sharper than a razor blade

Did you really want to fight over something that's really nothing?
It doesn't matter
Did you really want to scar my heart with words that hurt me?
Don’t hurt me
I don't really want to cry over issues
Wet tissues stick to my shoes
We can't take back words we've spoken
But I'm hoping you'll forgive me
I don't care about what you said about me
Can we agree to disagree?
I am sorry

I'm hoping you'll forgive me
I'm hoping you'll forgive me
