[Verse 1] God, I am a sorry soul Abused too much Healed too slow You, you were an unknown hope Lost in the flowers My blood on the rose You rise up in my dreams Wind through our hair The weeds and vineyards cheer As we’re running down the stairs [Pre-Chorus] And now I see you on the death bed Your eyes that bleed All the missing sorrys Going through my head And somehow after all that’s done and said You forgive me in the end [Chorus] The meadows await I’m sorry I was not there to find you The meadows await I’m sorry I was too late to cry for you The meadows await And long ago I wish I could die for you The meadows await I’m sorry my sorry was too late [Verse 2] This space this room The smell of cigarettes The weeds the vineyards bend I hold sorrow like a thread In the dark strands of your hair in my hands I hear your name in the field Soft on the wind Like a prayer in the weeds I cannot mend [Pre-Chorus] And now I see you on the death bed Your eyes that bleed All the missing sorrys Going through my head And somehow after all that’s done and said You forgive me in the end [Chorus] The meadows await I’m sorry I was not there to find you The meadows await I’m sorry I was too late to cry for you The meadows await And long ago I wish I could die for you The meadows await I’m sorry my sorry was too late [Bridge] If I could turn If I could run Back through the flowers Back to the sun I’d take your hand I’d take the blame I’d call your name I’d call your name [Final Chorus] God The meadows await I’m sorry I was not there to find you The meadows await I’m sorry I was too late to cry for you The meadows await And long ago I wish I could die for you The meadows await I’m sorry my sorry was too late God The meadows await I’m sorry I was not there to find you The meadows await I’m sorry I was too late to cry for you The meadows await And long ago I wish I could die for you The meadows await I’m sorry my sorry was too late God The meadows await I’m sorry I was not there The meadows await I’m sorry I was too late The meadows await I wish I could die for you The meadows await My sorry was too late
