Best of Me Lyrics

It's so hard to say that
I'm sorry I'll make everything alright
All these things that I've done
Now what have I become?
And where'd I go wrong?

I don't mean to hurt
Just to put you first
I won't tell you lies (I'm sorry)
I will stand accused
With my hand on my heart
I'm just trying to say

I'm sorry
It's all that I can say
You mean so much and
I'd fix all that I've done
If I could start again
I'd throw it all away
To the shadows of regret
And you would have the best of me

I know that I can't take back
All of the mistakes but I will try
Although it's not easy
I know you believe me
'Cause I would not lie

Don't believe their lies
Don't bring jealous eyes
They don't understand (I'm sorry)
I won't break your heart
I won't bring you down
But I will have to say

I'm sorry
It's all that I can say
You mean so much and
I'd fix all that I've done
If I could start again
I'd throw it all away
To the shadows of regret
And you would have the best of me

I'm sorry
It's all that I can say
You mean so much and
I'd fix all that I've done
If I could start again
I'd throw it all away
To the shadows of regret
And you would have the best of me
