Takes
Lyrics
[verse]
I've been standing at the edge of every word
Trying to say the thing you should have heard
But every time I open up my mouth
The truth gets tangled going out
[chorus]
It's so hard to say I'm sorry
Harder still to let you go
I've been carrying this story
Longer than you'll ever know
[verse]
I know I broke the promise that I made
I know I let the trust between us fade
But if you give me one more chance to try
I'll spend forever telling you why
[chorus]
It's so hard to say I'm sorry
Harder still to let you go
I've been carrying this story
Longer than you'll ever know
[bridge]
Maybe words were never quite enough
Maybe love requires more than words made up
But I'll keep reaching till you feel it too
Everything I owe to you
[chorus]
It's so hard to say I'm sorry
Harder still to let you go
I've been carrying this story
Longer than you'll ever know
