I'm Sorry Songtext
von David Kauffman

Sarah Banaszak was five years old
I was eight, I was great
I lived across the street
We moved in before they did
Which gave me the right to be mean
She was green, it would be quick defeat
Everyone laughed ′cause she was meeker than us
Here came my chance to prove that I was tough

I'm sorry I pushed you down
I did not know what I was doing
I thought I′d grow taller if I made you smaller
I was wrong, I was wrong
I'm sorry I pushed you down


Ten years of marriage to my friend Leah
I like the walks, I like the talks
I still like holding hands
But I can't count the times I turned away
And like a fool I blamed you for my offense
The days are numbered and the nights untold
I broke your heart and I bruised your soul

I′m sorry I pushed you down
I did not know what I was doing
I thought I′d grow taller if I made you smaller
I was wrong, I was wrong
I'm sorry I pushed you down
I′m sorry I pushed you down

Forgiveness finds me every time I beg to be made new
But I can't help remembering how I was such a fool
Maybe my heart′s telling me to get down on my knees
Remember who I've hurt the most and make my peace
Whatever I have done to one of these
I have read, you have said I have done to you
I try not to hear you when I hurt someone
It takes days for me to say, "Jesus, what have I done?"
So I come to you my heart to bare
Won′t you hear me as I pray this prayer

I'm sorry I pushed you down
I did not know what I was doing
I thought I'd grow taller if I made you smaller


I was wrong, so wrong
I′m sorry I pushed you down
I did not know what I was doing
I thought I′d grow taller if I made you smaller
I was wrong, I was wrong
I'm sorry I pushed you down
I′m sorry I pushed you down
I'm sorry I pushed you down

I′m sorry I...
I'm sorry
