I'm scared that every time I say I'm sorry That I'm more the man I never planned to be But the saddest part is that I stopped believing In every word I've said along the way And I'm sorry And I swear, I'm okay Those little words don't mean a thing When I know, there's no way we'll ever be the same Because nothing can replace when it's all falling down like rain But I swear, I'm okay The only words I have to say I've seen a mountain crumble down around me Like an avalanche of medicine to feel I can tell myself that I am not my father But it seems that I get closer every year And I'm sorry And I swear, I'm okay Those little words don't mean a thing When I know, there's no way we'll ever be the same Because nothing can replace when it's all falling down like rain But I swear, I'm okay The only words I have to say I'm sorry that I'm not the man I promised you I'd be But I need you now I'm sorry that I'm not the man I promised you I'd be But I need you now Yeah, I need you now Yeah, I need you now I swear I'm okay, those little words don't mean a thing When I know there's no way we'll ever be the same Because nothing can replace when it's all falling down like rain But I swear, I'm okay The only words I have to say
