I'm sorry about the man on the street with no place to sleep
Beggin' for smal change and something to eat
And I'm sorry about the people who walk by with shame in their eyes
And still they're too greedy to spare one dime
I'm sorry about the people who think that they deserve more than others
That their life is worth more than others'
I'm sorry for the kids looking for someone to help them
And not just to yell at them
And I'm sorry that life isn't always what we ask for
And I'm sorry that some always have less an some have more
I'm sorry about the feelings I hurt in you
But feelings just change
Refrain:And in the end
(oh, I'm sorry)
Why can't it just be the way that we want it to be
In the end
(oh, I'm sorry)
Why can't we all stand up and all hold hands
(I'm sorry)
Why can't it just be the way that we want it to be
In the end
(oh, I'm sorry)
I'm sorry about the kids whose parents have gone
And now we tell them, find your own way and just hold on
I'm sorry about these endless discussions about war
Skin color, sex, religion and more
I'm sorry about the way we treat each other sometimes Or is it too much to ask that we help people and be kind?
Sorry that the weather's not always right
We deserve bright sunshine in our souls and our lives
Sorry that life isn't always what we ask for
And i'm sorry that some always have less an some have more
I'm sorry about the feelings I hurt you
But feelings just change
(Refrain 2x)
