I’m Sorry
The Platters
Words and Music by Buck Ram, Peter Tinturin, and William White 
(peak Billboard position # 11 in 1957)

I’m sorry for the things I’ve done
I know that I’m the foolish one
Now that I see who’s to blame
I’m so ashamed, I’m sorry

I’m sorry for the things I’ve said
Just like a child I lost my head
I should have known from the start
I’d break your heart, I’m sorry

Please be kind and I know you’ll find
It’s so easy to forgive
Darling, wait for it’s not too late
Give our love a chance to live

I know the heartaches you’ve been through
I know for I’ve had heartaches, too
There’s nothing more I can do
But say to you “I’m sorry”

Please be kind and I know you’ll find
It’s so easy to forgive
Darling, wait for it’s not too late
Give our love a chance to live, oh live

I know the heartaches you’ve been through
I know for I’ve had heartaches, too
There’s nothing more I can do
But say to you----“I’m sorry”

(Darling, I’m truly sorry)
