[Verse] How she gave me everything And I’ve got nothin’ to give She’s the reason I’m still standing I’m just a reason to forgive [Chorus] Oh I could apologize To keep from lyin’ to myself Unless I came here to break her heart By apologizin’ for everybody else [Verse] Hand in backing on the Bible On some love or some remorse Yes won’t get me denied on entry No won’t get me to heaven’s doors [Verse] I wonder which prayers are disaster Which betrayals I hide so well Oh Which of my tears was the master Most important Which story I live to tell [Chorus] Oh I could apologize To keep from lyin’ to myself Unless I came here to break her heart By apologizin’ for everybody else [Bridge] Matrimony struggle and fight What I’m reading It’ll be all right By our third try Promise before I die
