Lyrics to "I'm Sorry" words and music by Susan Salidor
I'm sorry I did that ...I did that made you mad,
I'm sorry I said that thing... that made you sad,
When I saw you cry, I could not believe my eyes.
I'm sorry I did that thing that I did, I apologize.
I saw you fall and I started to laugh,
'Cause I was not thinking about much at all,
I ...was not thinking about how you felt ,
Or if you got hurt Or how it was that you fell.
I have to remember ...you are my friend,
Now and forever our friendship will not end,
And I do not like to see you cry,
And I do not want to make you cry,
I'm sorry I did that ...I did that thing that made you mad,
I'm sorry I said that thing that... made you sad,
When I saw you cry, I could not believe my eyes.
I'm sorry I did that thing that I did, I apologize.
I'm sorry I did that thing that I did, I apologize
