From the recording "Is She Wifey? — The Prelude to I Do (Acoustic Songs of Solomon Edition 1)
"I'm Really Truly Sorry": A raw, acoustic confession of regret for abandoning someone in their darkest hour. This song is a painful apology, acknowledging the scars left behind and the desperate, likely futile, hope for a second chance to make things right.

LYRICS SORRY SONG
[Intro]
(Ooh)
I walked away when you needed me most
(Ooh)
Selfish Ghost
(Ooh)
Late-night calls went straight to voicemail
(Ooh)
I said selfish
[Verse 1]
I don't see the light breaking through
A chance to start fresh, just me and you
With every step, I'll prove my heart
Together, we can make a brand new start
[Chorus]
I'm sorry for the tears I caused
Sorry for every moment that I've lost
(Ooh)
I'm sorry I didn't see the hurt inside
But now I'm here, I won't hide
(Ooh)
Take my hand, let's find a way
I'll make it right, starting today
I'm really, truly sorry
I'm sorry, babe
[Verse 2]
I lost my way in the noise and the rush
Left you behind in a careless hush
You built a home, I broke it apart
Now I'm standing here with a naked heart
[Chorus]
I don't see the light breaking through
A chance to start fresh, just me and you
With every step, I'll prove my heart
Together, we can make a brand new start
I'm sorry for the tears I caused
Sorry for every moment that I've lost
(Ooh)
I'm sorry I didn't see the hurt inside
But now I'm here, I won't hide
(Ooh)
Take my hand, let's find a way
I'll make it right, starting today
I'm really, truly sorry
I'm sorry, babe
[Bridge]
Sometimes I could be wrong
But it's okay to be wrong if it helps me grow
(Ooh)
This time I feel so strong
Let's rewrite our story, erase the pain, turn the sorrow into grace
(Ooh)
[Chorus]
I'm sorry for the tears I caused
Sorry for every moment that I've lost
(Ooh)
I didn't see the hurt inside
But now I'm here, I won't hide
(Ooh)
Take my hand, let's find a way
I'll make it right, starting today
I'm really, truly sorry
I'm sorry, babe
[Outro]
I walked away when you needed me most
(Ooh)
Selfish dreams, I was a selfish ghost
(Ooh)
Late-night calls went straight to voicemail
You cried alone while I said selfish
I don't see the light breaking through
A chance to start fresh, just me and you
With every step, I'll prove my heart
Together, we can make a brand new start
I'm sorry for the tears I caused
Sorry for every moment that I've lost
(Ooh)
I'm sorry I didn't see the hurt inside
But now I'm here, I won't hide
(Ooh)
Take my hand, let's find a way
I'll make it right, starting today
I'm really, truly sorry
I'm sorry, babe
